This study was conducted to develope a simple, rapid and solvent-free solid-phase microextraction(SPME) procedure for extracting three organochlorine, one triazine and nine organophosphorus pesticides from water. The optimal conditions of SPME for analyses of organochlorine pesticides were obtained at $250^{\circ}C$ of desorption temperature, 45 minutes of equilibrium time, pH 6 and NaCl 0% addition using $100{\mu}m$ polydimethylsiloxane fiber and those of triazine and organophosphorus pesticides were obtained at $270^{\circ}C$ of desorption temperature, 60 minutes of equilibrium time, pH 6 and NaCl 0% addition using $100{\mu}m$ polydimethylsiloxane fiber. This method showed good lineality for organochlorine pesticides between 0.0001 and $10{\mu}g/L$ with regression coefficients ranging 0.9986~0.9992 and for triazine and organophosphorus pesticides between 0.01 and $10{\mu}g/L$ with regression coefficients ranging 0.9867~0.9998.

Nonionic sorbitan monostearate have been successfully prepared by esterification using 1,4-sorbitan and stearic acid. 1,4-sorbitan were prepared using D-sorbitol and acid catalyst at solvent-free conditions. The synthesized surfactants were characterized by NMR and FT-IR. We also investigated the effect of temperature, pressure and catalyst on the synthesis of nonionic sorbitan monostearate. The yields of 1,4-sorbitan were 90% at $160^{\circ}C$ under 160 mmHg vacuum, and the yields of nonionic sorbitan monostearate were 92% at $230^{\circ}C$ under 60 mmHg vacuum.

The inorganic multi-layer thin film encapsulation was newly adopted to protect the organic layer from moisture and oxygen. Using the electron beam, sputter, inorganic multi-layer thin-film encapsulation was deposited onto the Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) and their interface properties between inorganic and organic layer were investigated. In this investigation, the SiON, $SiO_2$ and parylene layer showed the most suitable properties. Under these conditions, the WVTR for PET can be reduced from level of $0.57g/m^2/day$ (bare subtrate) to $1*10^{-5}g/m^2/day$ after application of a SiON and $SiO_2$ layer. These results indicates that the $PET/SiO_2/SiON/Parylene$ barrier coatings have high potential for flexible organic light-emitting diode(OLED) applications.

For the production of diglyceride (DG) containing medium chain fatty acid, which could be utilized as a substrate to structured lipid production, monoglyceride (MG) and caprylic acid were reacted in the presence of lipase. The reaction system was well mixed homogeneously without using any organic solvent. Among the lipases investigated, Lipozyme RM IM and Novozym 435 were selected on the basis of equilibrium DG yields from the medium chain fatty acid and MG. And reaction conditions such as addition of molecular sieve, water content of immobilized lipase, reaction temperature, and mole ratio of MG/caprylic acid are optimized to increase DG production by using Lipozyme RM IM. DG content of reaction mixture showed 8% increase by adding molecular sieve to reaction mixture. Removal of water from the immobilized lipase could affect seriously equilibrium content of DG. More than 2.8%(w/w) removal of water from the support could make 44% of DG. Optimum temperature was found to $60^{\circ}C$. Temperature shift from $60^{\circ}C$ to $25^{\circ}C$ resulted in increase of free fatty acid (FFA) content. The equilibrium DG yield was not seriously affected by on MG/caprylic acid molar ratio. However, at the stoichiometric ratio of 1:1 the highest DG yield was obtained. Increasing MG/caprylic acid ratio from 0.3 to 1.8 decreased FFA content from 34% to 13%, while MG content increased from 27% to 50%.

In this work, the morphology of polyvinylidene-co-hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-co-HFP) membranes were systemically investigated using phase inversion technique, to target membrane contactor applications. As the presence of macrovoids degrade the mechanical integrity of the membranes and jeopardize the long-term stability of membrane contactor processes (e.g. wetting), a wide range of dope compositions and casting conditions was studied to eliminate the undesired macrovoids. The type of solvent had significant effect on the membrane morphology, and the observed morphology were correlated to the physical properties of the solvent and solvent-polymer interactions. In addition, to fabricate macrovoid-free structure, the effects of different coagulation temperatures, inclusion of additives, and addition of nonsolvents were investigated. Due to the slow crystallization rate of P(VDF-co-HFP) polymer, it was found that obtaining porous membrane without macrovoids is difficult using only nonsolvent-induced phase separation method (NIPS). However, combined other phase inversion methods such as evaporation-induced phase separation (EIPS) and vapor-induced phase separation (VIPS), the desired membrane morphology can be obtained without any macrovoids.

In this study, antioxidative effects of the extracts of different species and flowering periods of Inula britannica were investigated. According to the free radical (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH) scavenging activity of the extracts, The I. britannica var. chinensis flower extract (500 ${\mu}g/mL$) was measured in a 79.89% free radical scavenging activity, but the flower extracts of similar species (I. britannica var. linariaefolia Regel, I. britannica var. ramosa, I. salicina var. asiatica) did not show any effect on the free radical scavenging activity. The effects of the free radical scavenging activity of I. britannica var. chinensis flower extracts were exhibited in the order of full bloom (93.68%), bud (43.28%), and fallen blossom (14.11%). Next, we established optimum condition of extract solvent, temperature, extraction time. The extract from ethanol at $60^{\circ}C$ showed the most free radical scavenging activity among other conditions and extraction time not relevant in free radical scavenging activity. The protective effects of the extract of I. britannica var. chinensis flower on the photohemolysis of human erythrocytes by using rose bengal were increased in a concentration-dependent manner (5 ~ 50 ${\mu}g/mL$). In particular, the extract in 50 ${\mu}g/mL$ concentration exhibited better protective activity (${\tau}_{50}$ = 116.1 min) than (+)-${\alpha}$-tocopherol (${\tau}_{50}$ = 73.44 min), which is a known lipophilic antioxidant. Principle component of I. britannica var. chinensis flower was identified as quercetin of flavonoids by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). These results indicate that the extract of I. britannica var. chinensis flower can function as antioxidants in biological systems, particularly skin exposed to UV radiation by scavenging free radical and $^1O_2$, and protect cellular membranes against ROS. It is concluded that the antioxidative effects of the extract of I. britannica var. chinensis flower could be applicable to functional cosmetics.

Fifty-seven extracts from flower, leaf and stem of Agastache rugosa O. Kuntze were prepared by varing extraction conditions: solvents (hot water, ethanol and NaCl solution); temp.$(60,\;80\;and\;100^{\circ}C)$ and solvent ratios (10 to 35 times per material). Lipid content of leaf was 9.54% and protein content of the flower where the essential amino acids were most abundant among all parts was 16.8%. Among six minerals (Na. Ca, Fe, P, K and Mg) detected from all parts of the plant, the content of K was the highest. Extraction yield rated higher in odor of water, ethanol and NaCl solution, respectively and the extractions reached eqilibrium in about 15 to 20 min, regardless of extraction conditions. pH values of all extracted solvents maintained neutral upon extraction and a few free sugars in forms of glucose and fructose were detected from ethanol extracts. Colors and organoleptic characteristics of the extracts which determine the properties of final products varied with extraction conditions.

The tail portion of dried 6-year old white ginseng was extracted and sugars and nitrogen compounds were also evaluated for chemical properties depending on varying conditions of extractions. The factors studied were extraction temperature in the range of 70-$100^{\circ}C$, ethanol concentration of 0-90% and the times of extractions which was taken 8 hours per each extraction in water at $80^{\circ}C$. For the effect of ethanol concentration in the extraction solvent, it was found that the amounts of free, reducing and total sugars and starch recovered in extract were almost linearly decreased along with the increase of concentration and the nonprotein nitrogen accounted over 84% of total nitrogen in extract. As ethanol concentration became increased, extractions of total nitrogen and water souluble nonprotein nitrogen were decreased especially in 90% ethanol. For the extraction temperature, all the sugar fractions with water and 70% ethanol except free sugar have tended to increase along with the temperature raised from 70 to $100^{\circ}C$ and it was found there is little changes of nitrogen compounds in the temperature range except a rapidly increase in water soulble protein at $100^{\circ}C$. For the times of extractions, showed that most of extractable compounds were extracted in 3 times of extractions with water at $80^{\circ}C$. It was shown that more than 95f) of sugars and 80% of nitrogen compounds were yielded with water extraction. Accordingly it was efficient to extract with water or 70% ethanol in 3 times in terms of !actor and energy consumption.

In this study, the extraction of Conger myriaster oil by using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO₂) and organic solvent was investigated. The extraction conditions conducted for SC-CO₂ varied for pressure (25, 30 MPa) and temperature (45, 55 ℃), while the SC-CO₂ flow rate was kept constant during the experiment (27 g min^-1) and hexane was used as a conventional organic solvent. The extraction yield indicated that the best extraction condition would be SC-CO₂ at 55 ℃ and 30 MPa, resulting in the highest yield of 37.73 ± 0.14%. The oils were characterized for their fatty acid (FAs) composition using gas chromatography, while it was revealed that the major FAs were mystric acid, palmitoleic acid, oleic acid, electroosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The oxidation stability of the extracted C. myriaster oil was evaluated by measuring the acid value, peroxide value, and free fatty acid. The best oxidative stability was obtained from SC-CO₂ extracted oil at 30 MPa and 55 ℃. There was a significant difference in the color properties of the SC-CO₂ and hexane extracted oils, with the SC-CO₂ extracted oil showing better chromaticity than the oil extracted using hexane. Extracting oils from C. myriaster with SC-CO₂ could bring better economic benefits than using organic solvents. When supercritical carbon dioxide was used, there was no post-treatment process; thus, it was confirmed that this is a more environmentally friendly oil extraction method.

To isolate oryzanol from the by-product of rice bran oil refinning, experiment of solvent fractional crystallization was carried out at various conditions with the dark oil obtained by acidifying the soap stock of micella refinning process and the pitch obtained from vacuum distillation of the dark oil. The impurity interfering the crystallization process such as waxes can be removed as precipitates by cooling the 1:1 mixtrue of acetone and dark oil to $0^{\circ}C$, From the dewaxed dark oil, oryzanol concentrate with 51.3% purity was obtained by fractional crystallization at$0^{\circ}C$ with the mixture of 8 part volume of hexane and 1 part of the dewaxed dark oil. The concentrate was recrystallized at room temperature with 20 part volume of methanol to yield oryzanol crystal of 98.3% purity. The optimum condition of vacuum distillation was temperature of $180^{\circ}C\;at\;0.2{\sim}0.4\;torr$ with 2% steam sparging. At this condition, the free fatty acid in the dark oil was removed as distillate without thermal deomposition to yield 82.3% of oryzanol as the pitch of 27.3% purity. After concentration from the pitch with 20 part volume of hexane to yield yellow powder of 75.4% purity, the yellow powder was recrystallized in methanol at room temperature to obtain the crystal containing 99.0% oryzanol. The overall oryzanol yield from the dark oil and the pitch was 9.5 and 28.5%, respectively. The change of the composition of sterols and triterpenoid alcohols in the compounds isolated during fractionation was analyzed by GC-MS.
