To develop new antidementia nutraceuticals, a potent acetylcholinesterase (AChE)-inhibiting extract was screened from various extracts of nutritional mushrooms and lichens nutritional and its physicochemical properties were investigated. Among the several extracts tested, methanol extracts of Umbilicaria esculenta fruiting body showed the highest AChE inhibitory activity of 22.4%. U. esculenta AChE inhibitor was maximally extracted when fruiting bodies were treated with 80% methanol at $40^{\circ}C$ for 18 h. The methanol extracts contained 18.9% crude lipid, 18.8% crude protein, and 11.6% total sugar. In addition, they contained 444 mg/g glutamic acid, 44 mg/g histidine, and 41 mg/g aspartic acid. The methanol extracts were soluble in a solution of methanol and 20% dimethylsulfoxide, insoluble in n-hexane, chloroform, and water, and were stable at $20{\sim}60^{\circ}C$ and pH $1.0{\sim}5.0$ for 1 h.

Acyl CoA synthetase inhibitor, was purified from the culture broth of a Bacillus sp. B-6, which had been isolated from soil, by chloroform extract, silica gel column chro matography and preparative TLC. The purified acyl CoA synthetase inhibitor showed higher Antifungal activity against C. al-bicans (MIC: 8${\mu}$g/ml). Though the analysis of UV spectrum, melting point, IR spectrum, Mass-spectrum, $^1H$-NMR and $^{13}C$-NMR spectrum, the inhibitor could be identified as phenazine-l-carboxylic acid.

The carpophores of Mycroporus affinis (Blume et Nees) Kuntze which grows wildly in Korea were collected in the Gyeong Gi Province and extracted with chloroform and methanol. Two compounds were isolated from the extract and one of these compounds was identified as ergosterol by T.L.C., G.L.C. and chemical tests.

Attempts were made to investigate the sterol components of Xerocomus badius Fr. Kuhner ex Gilbert which grows wildly in Korea. Its carpophores were collected in Gyeong-Gi Province and extracted with chloroform and methanol. Two compounds were isolated from the extract and one of these compounds was identified as ergosterol by TLC, GLC and chemical tests.

To use onion(Allium cepa L.) residue as raw materials of food product, yields of onion-juice according to various extracting methods and optimal extracting condition of quercetin and its related glycosides were carried out. Onion juices gained by the methods of pressing, rotary crushing, freeze pressing and enzyme treatment. The yield by the method of enzyme treatment was higher than others. The yields of juice from fresh onion and heat-treated onion(8$0^{\circ}C$/10min) by pressing were 66% and 83%, respectively. Ethanol extraction of onion was efficient at 75$^{\circ}C$ and acetic acid extraction was proper at 3% concentration for 3 hours at 11$0^{\circ}C$. The onion extract was fractionated in the order of hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate and butanol to test flavonoids. The highest abundant flavonoids were found in ethylacetate and butanol fraction.

Fifty-eight strains of Aspergillus spp. isolated from various grains were examined for the screening of aflatoxins by the method of the Thin-Layer Chromatography (TLC), using the aflatoxin producing strain of Aspergillus flavus ATCC 15517 as a control. The results as follows: 1. Samples of Aspergillus spp. isolated from various grains were extracted with chloroform and chromatographied by the thin-layer chromatography method. 2. Three strains of Aspergillus spp. among the 58 strains can be found that the spots having the same Rf value as control with culture extract of Aspergillus flavus ATCC 15517. 3. The further prove studies of aflatoxins were proceed by the methods of in vivo and in vitro tests. And this methods considered to capable for the use of mass screening among the samples.

We examined the growth characteristics, fresh tuber yield, rotenone content of two yam beans (Pachyrhizus erosus and P. ahipa) introduced from Mexico. P. erosus species showed better adaptable ability than P. ahipa species in seed productivity and tuber yield. Rotenone content in the P. erosus species extracted with chloroform was 3.6 folds much more extracted than ethanol extraction. The order of rotenone content found in crude extract obtained by different solvent extraction from the highest to the lowest was mature seed (484.7 ${\mu}g$) and leaves (17.2 ${\mu}g$) of the P. erosus species, respectively.

Five flavonoid derivatives, pinostrobin (1), pinocembrin (2), alpinetin (3), cardamonin (4) and boesenbergin A (5) were isolated from the rhizomes of Boesenbergia pandurata. All compounds were elucidated based on its spectroscopic data and by the comparison with the previous works. 2D NMR technique was used for the structure elucidation of boesenbergin A to complement the data reported previously. The extracts and pure compounds were screened for cytotoxic activity against HL-60 cancer cell lines (human promyelocytic leukemia). Cytotoxic screening showed most of the extracts and pure compounds isolated from the rhizomes of Boesenbergia pandurata were active against HL-60 cancer cell line. The chloroform extract and boesenbergin A showed the most potent cytotoxic activity.

Phytochemical further investigation of the chloroform extract of the aerial parts of Crucianella maritima L. (Rubiaceae) growing in Egypt resulted in the isolation of a new anthraquinone; 3-formyl-1-hydroxy-2-methoxy anthraquinone (3) along with the four known compounds isolated for the first time from the genus Crucianella; alizarin-1-methyl ether (2), 1,4-dihydroxy-2-methoxy anthraquinone (5), 1, 3, 6-trihydroxy-2-methoxy anthraquinone (7) and the flavonol kaempferol (8), beside four known compounds previously isolated from the same plant. The structures of the isolated compounds were established based on different spectroscopic data including UV, IR, EIMS, 1D and 2D-NMR. Moreover, the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the isolated compounds were evaluated.

To elucidate chemical structure of the wood extractive, wood meal of Larix leptolepis Gorden was extracted with 95% ethanol for 72 hours. The extract was fractionated with organic solvents such as n-hexane, chloroform, diethylether, and ethyl acetate. From the hexane somble fraction of the extractives, a new diterpene compound was isolated and identified as 6-acetoxymanool or 13-hydroxy-8(17), 14-labddienyl-6-acetate by IR, $^1H(^{13}C)$-NMR and Mass spectrometry.
