A total of five compounds namely, 2-methylanthracene-9, 10-dione (1), 1-hydroxy-6-methylanthracene-9,10-dione (2), $\beta$-sitosterol (3), stigmasterol (4) and sitosterone (5) were isolated from the stem extracts of Polygonum lanatum for the first time. The structures of the isolated compounds (1-5) were established by extensive spectroscopic studies, including 2D NMR such as $^{1}H-^{1}H$ COSY, HSQC and HMBC studies. The crude extracts and purified compound (1) were screened for antimicrobial activity against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and fungi by the disc diffusion method. The n-hexane and dichloromethane soluble partitionates of the methanolic extract revealed mild to moderate inhibition of growth of the test organisms. The cytotoxic potential of the extractives and compound 1 was also determined by using brine shrimp lethality bioassay, where the extractives demonstrated significant cytotoxic activities.

A phytochemical study on the root of Cibotium barometz J. Smith led to the isolation of onitin (I), daucosterol (II) and a new compound (III). Compound III was characterized as 2-Ο-(9Z,12Z-octadecadienoyl)-3-Ο-[$\alpha$-D-galactopyranosyl-(1"-6")-Ο-$\beta$-D-galactopyranosyl] glycerol, named shinbarometin by $^1$H-, $^{13}$ C-NMR and LC/MS data. Compound III exerted an induced neuronal regeneration on nogo-A induced neuroblastoma cells.

A phytochemical study on the flower of Calotropis gigantea (Linn.) using silica gel column chromatography and preparative thin layer chromatography, led to the first time isolation of Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (compound 1) and anhydrosophoradiol-3-acetate (compound 2). The structures of these compounds were confirmed by spectroscopic analyses (IR, HRTOFMS and NMR). The antibacterial and antifungal activities of ethyl acetate extract, compound 1 and compound 2 were measured using the disc diffusion method. Ethyl acetate extract and compound 1 presented better results than compound 2. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of the extract and compounds were found to be in the range of $16{\sim}128{\mu}g/ml$. The cytotoxicity ($LC_{50}$) against brine shrimp nauplii (Artemia salina) were also evaluated and found to be 14.61 ${\mu}g/ml$ for ethyl acetate, 9.19 ${\mu}g/ml$ for compound 1 and 15.55 ${\mu}g/ml$ for compound 2.

The phytochemical study of nutmeg, the seeds of Myristica fragrans Houttuyn (Myristicaceae) led to the isolation of three lignans, safrole (I), macelignan (III), and a 3,4 : 3',4'-bis(methylenedioxy)lignan (II). The compound II was identified by a mixture (1:1) of (8S, 8'R)- and (8S, 8'S)-forms of bis(3, 4-methylenedioxy)-8, 8'-neolignan by $^1$H-, $^{13}$ C-NMR and $^1$H-$^1$H COSY spectral data. The compound II was isolated for the first time from Myristica fragrans.

끓는 물에 의한 재래적인 방법과 전자렌지를 이용하여 데치는 방법이 시금치의 phytochemical 성분 및 위해성 요인의 변화에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. ${\beta}$-Carotene과 chlorophylls 함량은 데치기에 의해 대조군보다 유의적으로 증가하였으며, 특히 재래적인 방법이 전자렌지에 의한 방법보다 높은 함량을 보였는데 chlorophyll a 함량은 유의적으로 증가한 반면 ${\beta}$-carotene과 chlorophyll b 함량은 단지 함량만 증가하였을 뿐 유의적인 차이는 없었다. Ascorbic acid와 총 flavonoid 및 총 polyphenol 함량은 데치기에 의해 모두 감소하였으며, 전자렌지에 의한 방법이 재래적인 방법보다 높은 함량을 보였다. 이때 전자렌지에 의해 데쳤을 경우 ascorbic acid는 대조군과 유의적인 차이 없이 감소하였으나, 총 flavonoid와 총 polyphenol은 대조군보다 유의적으로 낮은 함량을 보여 다소 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 총균과 대장균군 수는 데치기에 의해 모두 유의적으로 감소하였으며 특히 끓는 물에 의한 재래적인 방법이 전자렌지에 의한 데치기보다 약 20-25% 정도 유의적으로 낮았다. Nitrate는 데치기에 의해 감소하는 경향을 나타냈으며 특히 전자렌지에 의한 방법이 재래적인 방법보다 낮은 함량을 보였다.
