This study was designed to determine total trans fatty acids (tFAs) content of processed foods commonly consumed in the Korean diet and to prepare the database for the estimation of tFAs intake in Koreans. Total fat and tFAs content was determined by Soxhlet extraction method and attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR), respectively. The tFAs positional isomers were analyzed using GC/MS spectrometer. In margarines, the content of tFAs ranged from 8.27% to 28.53%. Shortenings contained higher levels of tFAs (1.98~11.33%) than lards (1.83~1.96%). The content of tFAs in grilled confectioneries was wide (7.37~26.54%). Instant popcorns contained the highest amount of tFAs. Fried chickens had 0.44 to 14.85% of tFAs and french fries had 5.18 to 27.01% of tFAs. In fried snacks (crispy) and chocolates, tFAs were not detected. The amount of tFAs per serving size was the highest in instant popcorn, followed by french fries, fried snack (tortilla), doughnuts, and grilled confectioneries. TFAs isomer of margarines was mostly C18:1${\Delta}$9t. In shortenings and lards, the most abundant positional isomer of tFAs was C18:1${\Delta}$9t and C18:2${\Delta}$9t ${\Delta}$12t. Correlation coefficient of tFAs content between IR and GC/MS method was $r^2$=0.91.

In this study, sampling and analytical procedures were evaluated for the determination of ambient levels of atmospheric PAH, both in gaseous and particulate phase. The method involves low-volume sampling and Soxhlet extraction of the filters and Tenax absorbent, followed by a clean-up stage using a silica column prior to analysis by reversed-phase HPLC with wavelength programmable fluorescence and UV detection. A total of 18 PAH were identified and quantified, all of which have been of environmental concern. In order to validate the methodology and to ensure compatibility of the results, the analytical method used for the determination of PAH was evaluated with respect to the efficiencies of extraction and clean-up procedure, HPLC separation, and lower limits of detection. In addition, substrate dependency of PAH recovery was investigated for the two types of fiters, i.e. glass fiber and PTFE filters.

Capacity of the analytical/quantitative evaluation techniques to satisfy both qualitative and quantitative considerations for effective extraction of marigold oleoresins/xanthophylls and their potential as anti-mycotic and antioxidant activity was assessed. Accelerated solvent extraction (ASE), Soxhlet extraction (SE), Supercritical fluid extraction (SCFE), Cold extraction (CE), and ultrasonically assisted extraction (USE) techniques were evaluated for extraction of oleoresin/xanthophyll content from Tagetes erecta (Var. Pusa Narangi Genda) with respect to solvent consumption, extraction time, reproducibility, and yield. Followed by the antifungal and antioxidant activity evaluation. The overall yield of Tagetes oleoresin was higher in ASE (64.5 g/kg) followed by SE (57.3 g/kg), USE (50.7 g/kg), SCFE (45.3 g/kg) and CE (31.6 g/kg). The lutein esters represented more than 80% of the constituents. Further, xanthophyll/ lutein content in oleoresin was found to be quite higher in HPLC (r2 = 0.996) analysis than in the AOAC recommended UV spectrophotometer analysis. The oleoresin exhibited moderate antioxidant activity (DPPH assay) and antifungal activity against three phytopathogenic fungi. Based on the various parameters, the reproducibility of ASE was better (0.3-8.0%) than that of SE (0.5-12.9%), SCFE (0.2-9.4%), USE (0.3-12.4%) and CE (0.8-15.3%). ASE with (RSD 1.6%) is preferred being faster, reproducible, uses less solvent, robust and automation allows sequential extraction of the sample in less time.

Anthocyanin and origomeric proanthocyanidin (OPC) fractions showing antioxidizing activity are present in grape extracts. Grape extracts are widely used in cosmetic applications as functional ingredients. The aim of our study is to isolate the antioxidant fraction from waste of grape products. The extraction was done using soxhlet apparatus. Next, the extraction was subjected for identification of antioxidants by using HPLC. Antioxidant assay was performed by using 2,2-diphenyl-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) method. Antioxidizing activity was found to be higher in grape seed extract when compared to grape skin extract. Using the extract, a novel formula with multi lamella emulsion structure has been developed and its safety and stability were confirmed by standard protocols.

Berberine is one of alkaloids extracted from Phellodendri Cortex or Coptidis Rhizoma and has extensively used as an antibacterial and antidiarrheal drug. In order to increase the bioavailability of berberine preparation, berberine pamoate was synthesized and investigated on its usage in vitro and in vivo. Berberine was more rapidly extracted from herbal plants by hot water extraction method than soxhlet extraction method. Berberine pamoate was easily synthesized from berberine hydrochloride and potassium pamoate solution and identified using the infrared spectrum. Quantitative analysis of berberine was possible in methanol solution by fluorometric determination. The dissolution rate of berberine pamoate was more decreased than that of berberine hydrochloride in simulated gastric fluid and simulated intestinal fluid. The remaining proportion of berberine pamoate in the small intestine of rat was maintained at high concentration for a long time as compared with that of berberine hydrochloride.

Effects of particle size and high pressure processing on the extraction rate of oil compounds from soybean powder were evaluated by Soxhlet method using hexane and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) using $CO_{2}$. SFE was carried out at 4,000 psi and $50^{\circ}C$ for 4 hr. The mean particle sizes were varied from 26.7 to 862.0 ${\mu}m$ by controlling milling time. Saturation solubility increased as the particle size decreased. At large particle size, high pressure processing (HPP) showed higher extraction yield in both hexane extraction and SFE, but, as the particle size decreased, the HPP was irrelevant to the extraction yield in SFE. The higher extraction rate obtained from the smaller particle size. The scanning electronic microscopy of soybean powder treated by HPP showed pores on the surface of the particle. The higher extraction rate and yield from HPP treatment might be due to the less internal resistance of transferring the solvent and miscellar in the solid matrix by collapsing of tissues.
