Herein, different extracts of Scenedesmus deserticola JD052, a green microalga, were evaluated in vitro as a potential anti-aging bioagent. Although post-treatment of microalgal culture with either UV irradiation or high light illumination did not lead to a substantial difference in the effectiveness of microalgal extracts as a potential anti-UV agent, the results indicated the presence of a highly potent compound in ethyl acetate extract with more than 20% increase in the cellular viability of normal human dermal fibroblasts (nHDFs) compared with the negative control amended with DMSO. The subsequent fractionation of the ethyl acetate extract led to two bioactive fractions with high anti-UV property; one of the fractions was further separated down to a single compound. While electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy analysis identified this single compound as loliolide, its identification has been rarely reported in microalgae previously, prompting thorough systematic investigations into this novel compound for the nascent microalgal industry.

Antioxidant and anti-diabetic activities of acorn were evaluated by its potential for scavenging stable DPPH free radical, inhibition of lipid peroxidation, reducing power, and inhibiton of ${\alpha}-glucosidase\;and\;{\alpha}-amylase$. The water extract of acorn exhibited strong antioxidant and antidiabetic related activities in the tested model systems. Solvent fractionation of the water extract revealed that the water fraction and the EtOAc fraction had strong antioxidant activity, and inhibitory activity on ${\alpha}-glucosidase\;and\;{\alpha}-amylase$. The water fraction exhibited higher DPPH radical scavenging activity ($EC_{50}=7.19{\mu}g/mL$) than that of ${\alpha}-tocopherol\;(EC_{50}=7.59{\mu}g/mL)$. It is considered that water extract of acorn has the potential for natural antioxidant and anti-diabetic products.

In the preliminary antitumor screening tests of Crude Drugs and collected plants, the methanol ic extract of Forsythia Fruits in Korean marcket showed signif icant cytotoxic activity against Chinese hamster V-79 cells, but that in Japanese market did not. The former was identifid as Forsythia viridissima Lindley and latter as F.suspensa Vahl on the basis of the morphological observation. When an aqueous solution of the extract prepared from the fruits of F. viridissima (Oleaceae) was partitioned successively with n-hexane, methylene chloride, n-butanol, the cytoyoxic activitywas concetrated in the methylene chloride extract. Fractionation of the extract was made with the guidance of bioassay against V-79 cells to give cytotoxic lignans, matariresiol (1) and arctigenin (2). Their ICso values of compounds 1 and 2 were respectively $7.8{\;}\mu\textrm{g}/ml$ 1 and $1.65{\;}\mu\textrm{g}/ml$. Also, their structures were confirmed by comparison of physical and spectral data in the literature.

The ethanol extract from the root bark of Morus alba showed the strongest antimicrobial activity on the growth of almost all the tested microorganisms which were food-borne pathogens and food-related microorganisms. 1) In order to isolate and purify of antimicrobial substance extracted from the root bark of Morus alba, the antimicrobial substance from the ethanol extract which exhibited a strong antimicrobial activity was purified by solvent fractionation, silica gel column chromatography, TLC and HPLC. Among the fractions fractionated by 4 kind of solvents from the ethanol extract, the antimicrobial activity of ethyl acetate fraction had the strongest antimicrobial activity against B. subtilis. Unknown compound were isolated from the ethyl acetate fraction by silica gel column chromatography, TLC and HPLC and the compounds showed strong absorbance at 207, 217 and 285 nm, therefore, it was supposed to be a kinds of aromatic compound.

The bark of Ulmus davidiana var. japonica(Ulmaceae) has been described in traditional books to have diuretic and laxative actions, to ameliorate edematous disease, and to be used in insomnia and gastointestinal disorders. Thus this study was carried out to elucidate some of the pharmacological activities of the plant extracts. The results obtained in tills experiment indicated that its methanol extract elicited remarkable inhibition of HCI.ethanol induced gastric lesion, Shay ulceration and gastric secretion. However, it showed no anti-inflammatory action. The acute toxicity of the extract was low, that is, the minimum lethal dose was more than 2000 mg/kg by oral administration in mice. The systematic fractionation of the methanol extract by hexane, ether, ethylacetate and butanol resulted in potent prevention of gastric erosion in butanol and water fractions.

Cornis fructus were extracted by successive extraction and then fractionated with hexane extract to get active fractions. This study was performed to determine the cytotoxic effect of hexane extract from Cornis fructus on NIH 3T3 fibroblasts and cancer cell lines using MTT assay. Hexane extract showed cytotoxic effect against A549, B16 melanoma and MDA-MB-231. Further fractionation with hexane extract were performed to obtain effective fraction, fraction 3 showed the cytotoxic effect against A549 and MDA-MB-231 cell line.

A bioassay-guided fractionation of the stem bark extract of Eucommia ulmoides Oliver (Eucommiaceae) led to the isolation of three iridoid constituents, genipin (1), geniposide (3), geniposidic acid (4) as well as (${\pm}$)-guaiacylglycerol (2) and fatty acid mixtures as active ingredients of the extract responsible for the antitumoral property. The EtOAc soluble part and BuOH soluble part of the extract demonstrated a significant inhibition on the proliferation of cultured human tumor cells such as A549 (non small cell lung), SK-OV-3 (ovary), SK-MEL-2 (melanoma), XF498 (central nerve system) and HCT-15 (colon) in vitro, whereas the remaining water soluble part exhibited a poor inhibition.

더덕(Codonopsis lanceolata)의 휘발성 향기성분을 분석하기 위해 gas co-distillation(GCD), solvent extraction/fractionation(SLF), headspace sampling(HSS) 방법을 사용하여 향기성분을 분리농축하고 분석 비교한 결과 SEF와 HSS 방법으로 얻은 농축물들의 향이 원래의 더덕향과 가장 유사했으며 gas chromatogram들의 양상도 비슷했으나 peak들의 크기에 있어서 차이를 보였다. SEF 농축물에서는 달콤한 향을 기리고 HSS 농축물에서는 풋내를 비교적 강하게 느낄 수 있었으나 GCD 농축물의 경우 일정 증류시간이 지나면 한악취를 느낄 수 있었다. SEF와 HSS 방법은 GCD에 비해서 적은 조작 단계로 손쉽게 빠른 시간내에 분리 농축이 가능했다. 농축한 향기성분은 GC-MS와 극성이 다른 두 column을 사용한 GC-RI system을 이용하여 확인하였다. 특히 GC-RI는 isomer의 확인에 효과적이었으며 극성 FFAP column은 극성 화합물의 확인에 보다 적합했다. 35가지의 향기성분들을 동정하였는데 그중 24개의 성분들은 simultaneous distillation extraction 농축물에서는$^{(5)}$ 확인되지 않았던 향기성분들이다. 화인된 성분들중 trans-2-hexenal, cis-3-hexen-1-ol, trans-2-hexen-1-ol, hexanol은 더덕의 풋내를, 1-octen-3-ol은 신선한 풍미를 그리고 amyl propionate를 비롯한 다수의 에스터 화합물 등은 더덕 특유의 달콤한 향에 복합적으로 작용할 것으로 추정된다.

Woodfordia fruticosa Kurz (Lythraceae) is used in the treatment of various ailments in traditional medicines. DPPH activity guided fractionation and purification process was used to identify the free radical-scavenging components from the flowers of this plant. The methanolic extract of the plant was first fractionated into four extracts; namely, n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate and water fractions. Among them, the ethyl acetate fraction was found to be the most effective and was further subjected to activity guided-fractionation and isolation procedures. After successive column chromatography on silica gel and Sephadex LH-20, gallic acid, which is responsible for the radical scavenging activity, was isolated and its structure was elucidated by spectral methods ($^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR) and by comparison with literature.
