Supercritical $CO_2$ extraction was applied to extraction of the valuable compound for benign prostatic hyperplasia from saw palmitto. Three levels of parameters, temperature $(35^{\circ}C,\; 60^<\circ}C)$, pressure 22∼30 Mpa and ethanol modified solvent concentration, were used as the independent variables of central composite to rotate the design. The extracting pressure and temperature interaction was significantly affected the extraction of valuable compounds. The ethanol was an efficient modifier to extract valuable compound by supercritical carbon dioxide. The optimal processing conditions were extracting pressure, 30 Mpa, extracting temperature, $60^<\circ}C$, ethanol modifier, 15% for extracts of the valuable compounds from saw palmitto. In conclusion, it was found that supercritical $CO_2$ extraction can successfully be applied to extract high quality extracts from saw palmitto.

The solvent extraction and cleanup processes for the simultaneous gas-liquid cliromatographic determination of 16 kinds of organochlorine pesticide residues were investigated. The pesticides were extracted out from-various crops with the aqueous acetone solution acidified (pH < 1.5) by adding conc. $H_3PO_4$. Most of the pesticides were partitioned from the solution with petroleum ether. Evaporated the extracting solvent, the residues were dissolved in ethylether-petroleum ether (6 : 94) eluent and eluted through the Florisil column activated at 650$^{\circ}$C for 2.5hrs. The extraction efficiency was over 94% and impurities were effectively removed by the column chromatography.

Solvent extraction behaviors of iron(III) from chloride solution at high ionic strength condition between Alamine336 and TBP were compared by using MaCabe-Thiele diagram. Extraction isotherms of iron by the two extractants were obtained by calculating the equilibrium concentrations of iron in both phases from the initial extraction conditions. In calculating the equilibrium concentration of iron, chemical equilibria in the aqueous phase and mass balance together with the solvent extraction reaction were considered. MaCabe-Thiele diagram of iron by 1M Alamine336 indicated that two extraction stages could lead to complete extraction of 0.5M iron from 3M HCl solution at an A/O ratio of 6/5. The extraction power of 1M Alamine336 was found to be the same as 2-3M TBP. MaCabe-Thiele diagram together with the physical properties of the two extractants indicated that Alamine336 is superior to TBP in extracting ferric iron from chloride solution.

This paper aimed to develop a solvent extraction and purification process to recover high-purified ${\beta}$-carotene from recombinant Escherichia coli. Cells harvested from the culture broth were treated through numerous steps: dehydration, solvent extraction, crystal formation and separation. To optimize the extracting condition, experiments were carried out to investigate the effect of cell disruption, temperature, organic solvents, solvent-biomass ratio on the yield of ${\beta}$-carotene extracted from cells. The result indicated that no significant differences of extraction yield were observed from cells with or without step of cell disruption. Among different extracting solvents, the highest extraction yield of ${\beta}$-carotene, 30.3 mg-${\beta}$-carotene/g-dry cells, was obtained with isobutyl acetate at solvent-biomass ratio 25 mL/g-dry cells at $50^{\circ}C$. Notably, in case of acetone, the extraction yield was quite low when using acetone itself, but increased almost up to the highest value when combining this solvent and olive oil. The purity of ${\beta}$-carotene crystals obtained from crystallization and separation was 89%. The purity degree was further improved up to 98.5% by treating crude crystals with additional ethanol washing.

For the sustained release formulation of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH), dissociable rhGH aggregates were microencapsulated within poly(D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) [PLGA] microparticles. rhGH aggregates with 2 - 3 m Particle diameter were first produced by adding a small volume of aqueous rhGH solution into a partially water miscible organic solvent phase(ethyl acetate) containing PLGA. These rhGH aggregates were then microencapsulated within PLGA polymer phase by extracting ethyl acetate into an aqueous phase pre-saturated with ethyl acetate. The resultant microparticles were 2 - 3 m in diameter similar to the size of rhGH aggregates, suggesting that PLGA polymer was coated around the protein aggregates. Release profiles of rhGH from these microparticles were greatly affected by changing the volume of the incubation medium. The release rhGH species consisted of mostly monomeric form with having a correct conformation. This study reveals that sustained rhGH release could be achieved by microencapsulating reversibly dissociable protein aggregates within biodegradable polymers.

Methyl orange(MO) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTA) were mixed and added to 10ml of the buffer solution and then the solution was shaken for 5 minutes. The maximum absorption wavelength of the reaction product was 419nm. Dichloromethane was the best extracting solvent among the several organic solvents and the most suitable pH range was 2~8. When the CTA-MO calibration curve was made in the best experimental condition, the Lambert-Beer's law was obeyed in the range of CTA concentration of $1.5\times$$10^{-5}$~1.0$\times$$10^{-4}M$ by UV spectrophotometer. This method was possible to determine quaternary ammonium salts in the pharmaceutical preparations.

Metoclopramide reacts with ammonium cobaltothiocyanate to form a stable ion pair which has an absorption maximum of 625mm. The reaction product was insoluble in water but soluble in most organic solvents. 1,2-Dichlorethane was the best extracting solvent among the several organic solvents tested. Metoclopramide can be determinded not only by visible light spectrophotometry but also indirectly by estimation of cobalt in the organic phase by flameless atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Linear relationship was found between absorbance and concentration in the range of 10$^{-4/}$-10$^{-3}$M by spectrophotometry and 10$^{-5}$-10$^{-4}$M by flameless atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The coefficient of variation by spectrophotometry was 0.9% and that of flameless atomic absorption was 1.8%. There was no interference with excipients, pH, temperature and reaction time. With this method, it is possible to determine accurately metoclopramide and tertiary amines in pharmaceutical preparations.

Ixeris dentata Nakai (Compositae) is a perennial herb and the young shoots when prepared properly are edible as a bitter appetizing vegetable in the early spring. The whole plant has been used as a folk medicine in treating diabetes in Korea. As a part of our studies on bitter substances, we have investigated the bitterness of the plant through a taste-guided fractionation method. Bitter substances were extracted by the solvent fractionation and the bitterness was evaluated by 10 trained panelists consisted with graduate students of Dept. of Foods and Nutrition. It has been revealed that the bitter compounds were distributed throughout the extracting fractions and the higher intensity of the bitterness was seen in the n-BuOH fractions. The bitter compounds were subfractionated by the silica gel column chromatography and the bitterness was evaluated by the trained panelists. The subfractions which were indicated as the bitter compounds will be further studied to isolate the compounds. The H$_2$O fractions were grouped according to the molecular weight through the ultrafiltration and the group with 1,000 < m.w. < 30,000 was evaluated as the most intense bitter subfraction.

Quaternary amines which are widely used as medicines are nitrogen compounds. Metanil yellow(MY) and benzalkonium chloride(BKC) were mixed and added to 10ml of the buffer solution and then the solution was shaken for 5 minutes. The maximum absorption wavelength of the reaction product was 402 nm. Dichloromethane was the best extracting solvent among the several organic solvents and the most suitable pH range was 2~8. When the BKC-MY calibration curve was made in the best experimental condition, the Lambert-Beer's law was obeyed in the range of BKC concentration of 2$\times$$10^{-6}$~9$\times$$10^{-6}$M by UV spectrophotometer. This method was possible to determine quaternary ammonium salts in the pharmaceutical preparation.
