The purpose of this study was to process extraction and separation for polyglucose porpyran from pophyra yezoensis as high yield. The acidic porphyran solution was extracted with 0.1~1N of ${\alpha},{\beta}$-dichloromaleic acid or ${\alpha}$-chloromaleic acid of 2% solution as organic acid instead of inorganic acid at $60^{\circ}C$ and then porphyran was collection of high yield to acidic solution and it was neutralization treated with 0.1N of $d-Ca(OH)_2$ solution and the mixture was conversion to porphyran salt form and treated with a shell powder of ouster and then added of ethanol as precipitator. It recovery porphyran contained of violet purple laver coloring matter was obtained as a crystalline and used for the next step without future purification to prepare of porphyran laver jam. so, The resulting porphyran and porphyran jam was characterized by it component and physical properties.

The effect of extraction temperature ($60\~100^{\circ}C$) and pH ($2.0\~13.5$) on the yield and chemical compositions of crude porphyran from Porphyra Yezoensis was investigated. The yield and chemical compositions of crude porphyran were greatly affected by extraction pH and temperature. Yield was highest between pH $3\~4$ at all temperature ranges. Crude porphyran extracted in acidic conditions showed more sulfate and less protein content than extracted in neutral conditions, but molecular weights was decreased. Crude porphyran extracted in alkaline conditions showed low sulfate and high protein content. For high yield and low molecular weight, acidic condition, particulary pH $3\~4$, was effective. But in order to avoid molecular weight degradation, neutral conditions were effective.

The chemical and gelling properties of porphyran from Porphra yezoensis collected from Buan and Wido in Korea at different months of the year were studied. Crude porphyran was prepared by hot-water extraction and further purified by cetylpyridinium chloride precipitation, Crude porphyran and porphyran were modified by alkali treatment to eliminate sulfate. The yields of alkali-modified crude porphyran (AMCP) and porphyran(AMP) were between $4.9\~10.9\%$ and $4.0\~6.7\%$ of the dried algae weight and were maximum in February for Buan and January for Wido, respectively. Gel strength of AMCP were highest in February ($790g/cm^2$) for Buan and January ($740 g/cm^2$) for Wido. Alkali modification increased 3,6-anhydro galactose content and the molar ratio of galactose and 3,6-anhydrogalactose of AMCP and AMP showed 1 : 0,8$\~$1.1. GLC and FT-IR measurement of AMP showed that most of sulfate residues were combined to C-6 of galactose, Thus, results of this study suggest that crude porphyran extracted from Porphra yezoensis produces an agar of a reasonably good quality after alkali treatment.
