Optimal extraction conditions for yield, browning color, electron donating ability, nitrite scavenging effect, total polyphenol content and tyrosinase inhibitory activity of Lyophyllum ulmarium were determined by using response surface methodology (RSM) through the central composite design. The extraction yield of Lyophyllum ulmarium was effected by ethanol concentration and browning color was improved with the increase of ethanol concentration than microwave power. The nitrite scavenging effect was improved with the increase of ethanol concentration and decrease of microwave power The electron donating ability, browning color, tyrosinase inhibitory activity and total polyphenol content were improved with the increase in ethanol concentration and microwave power. The optimal ranges of extraction conditions for effective components of Lyophyllim ulmarium were predicted as 60.05~102.75 watt of microwave power, 53.20~64.01% of ethanol concentration and 7.77 min of extraction time.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum extraction method suitable for the availability of biological activities in unripe apples known to be rich in functional components. Unripe apples 'Hongro' picked on May 28th, 2019 were extracted by various extraction methods (hot water, ethanol, enzymatic pre-treatment, ultrasonic wave, and subcritical water) and their extracts were investigated yield, effective component contents, and antioxidant activities. Overall, the yields by the extraction solvent were higher in water than in organic solvent(ethanol) because water-soluble compounds were eluted from a polar solvent. Total phenol contents of the ultrasonic wave (ethanol) extracts were significantly higher in 6 times than hot water extract. Contents of flavonoid were highest in the ethanol extract at 29.14 mg QE/g. Contents of tannin and ursolic acid were also significantly higher in the ultrasonic wave (ethanol) extract. The DPPH radical and ABTS radical scavenging activities were the strongest in the ultrasonic wave (ethanol) extract. Correlation between effective components and antioxidant activities was high in the total phenol content with ABTS and the ursolic acid content with DPPH (p<0.01). The above results suggested that ultrasonic wave (ethanol) extract of unripe apples has the potential to act as a functional material.

The solvent extraction of polyethylene glycol (PEG) by ethanol has been studied for the powder injection molded compacts of Sr-ferrite/PEG/carnauba wax/HDPE. The extraction rate of PEG is sensitively proportional to the solvent temperature whereas it is inversely proportional to the contents of PEG, the molecular weight of PEG. and the specimen thickness. The high extraction rate of PEG is achieved under the following conditions: solvent temperature of $70^{\circ}C$, PEG contents of 30%, and PEG molecular weight of 400 g/mol. In the early stage of solvent extraction, the non-linear relationship between the extraction rate and the square root of the extraction time indicates that the extraction of PEG does not follow the Fickian behavior. At extraction times longer than 180 min. however, the extraction of PEG follows the Fickian behavior. The extraction fate of PEG by ethanol is about$1.0{ imes}10^{-6}g/cm^2sec$ enough for common applications.

Optimum extraction conditions for yield, browning color, electron-donating ability, nitrite-scavenging effect, total polyphenol content, and tyrosinase-inhibitory activity of Flammulina velutipes were determined using response surface methodology through central composite design. Yield of F. velutipes was affected by ethanol concentration, and browning color improved more with the increase of ethanol concentration than microwave power. Nitrite-scavenging effect was improved with increasing ethanol concentration and decreasing microwave power. Electron-donating ability and total polyphenol content were improved with increasing ethanol concentration and microwave power. Tyrosinase-inhibitory effect increased more with decrease in microwave power than with ethanol concentration. The optimal range of extraction conditions for effective component of F. velutipes were $47.21{\sim}76.05$ watt of microwave power, $10.25{\sim}43.56%$ of ethanol concentration, and 5.72 min of extraction time.

Volatile components of crude fucoidan and its raw material, Undaria pinnatifida sporophylls were identified by GC/MSD analysis, and the effects of a combined method of solvent extraction and drying (hot-air drying or spray drying) on deordorization of fucoidans were examined. The major components of seaweed smell (odor) in crude fucoidan and Undaria pinnatifida sporophylls were identified as alkanes (octadecane, heptadecane, tetradecane) and acids (hexadecanoic acid, oleic acid). Solvent extraction and drying were combined for the deordorization of fucoidans: hot-air drying/deordorization process (HDDP) and spray drying/deordorization process (SDDP). The deordorization effects of solvent extraction using solvents including water, ethanol, and acetone were investigated. Among the tested solvents, ethanol was selected as a deordorization solvent, because the seaweed smell and taste were mostly lowered by ethanol extraction followed by drying. In addition, HDDP and SDDP were compared, showing that SDDP gave higher sensory characteristics than HDDP. When the crude fucoidan was treated by ethanol extraction for 30 min followed by SDDP, approximately 60% of off-flavor components of crude fucoidan was removed based on GC/MSD peak area, and the total sugar and sulfate contents and APTT-anticoagulant activity significantly increased compared to crude fucoidan. In conclusion, SDDP after ethanol treatment was proposed and established as a deordorization process for fucoidan preparation.

This study optimized the extraction of antioxidants from Gugija (Lycium chinensis Mill). To determine operational parameters, including ethanol concentration ($X_1$, 0~80%) and extraction time ($X_2$, 1~5 hr), response surface methodology was applied to monitor yield, anthocyanins, flavonoids and DPPH radical scavenging activity. Coefficients of determinations ($R^2$) of the models were range of 0.8645~0.9859 (p<0.01~0.1) in dependant parameters. Yield of Gugija extracts was maximized 23.12% in extraction conditions of 4.22 h at 8.25% ethanol. Anthocyanins was maximized 1.43 (OD in 530 nm) in extraction conditions of 3.06 h at 79.98% ethanol. Flavonoids was maximized $3,100{\mu}g/100g$ in extraction conditions of 3.37 h at 67.02% ethanol. DPPH radical scavenging activity was maximized 96.93% in extraction conditions of 1.67 h at 69.81% ethanol. Optimum extraction conditions (2.5 h extraction at 70% ethanol) were obtained by superimposing the contour maps with regard to anthocyanins, flavonoids and DPPH radical scavenging activity of Gugija. Maximum values of anthocyanins, flavonoids and DPPH radical scavenging activity in optimum extraction condition were 1.0080 (OD in 530 nm), $3,145{\mu}g/100g$, 96.96%, respectively. But values of anthocyanins, flavonoids and DPPH radical scavenging activity in water extraction condition (1 h at water) were 0.4652 (OD in 530 nm), $1,633{\mu}g/100g$, 86.98%, respectively.
