Hurdle technique was used to remove cholesterol efficiently from liquid egg yolk. The quality of the low cholesterol egg products from the process were evaluated. From the 75 % cholesterol reduced egg yolk through $\beta$-cyclodextrin treatment. 2 times weight of soy bean oil was added to the egg yolk and homogenized followed by centrifuged to be maximized to remove cholesterol. When the pH of the yolk was adjusted to 9, 92 % of cholesterol was removed while 95.4 % of cholesterol was removed when 3 times weight of soy bean oil was added to the egg yolk. As the results of application of supercritical carbon dioxide extraction to the 75 % cholesterol reduced egg yolk through ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin treatment, 92.5 % of the cholesterol was removed from the egg yolk at $35^{\circ}C$, 4,500 psi, for 4 hours under co-solvent. The quality characteristics of the produced low cholesterol egg products were analysed. The cholesterol reduced egg yolk produced from ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin and soy bean oil treatment showed the lower emulsion capacity compared with control. The fatty acid composition of the cholesterol reduced egg yolk produced from ${\bet}a$-cyclodextrin and soy bean oil treatment showed increased C18:2 and C18:3 compared with control while decreased C16:1 and C18: 1 compared with control. The saponification method with extracting solvent of hexane showed that cholesterol concentration was 28.1 %. The quantity of hydrolysis solution(95 % ethanol : 33 % KOH = 94 : 6) was varied from 40 to 80 times of sample weights and the cholesterol concentration of 35.7 % was the highest result in the 60 times(v/w) hydrolysis solution. Cholesterol concentration of 35.7 % was recovered at the first trial with saponification method. but it could be improved up to 95.7 % after 4 times repetitive purification.

In this study we investigated physicochemical properties of Zanthoxylum schinifolium seeds oil base extracts. Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), roast pressure (RPM) and steam pressure (SPM) method were used for oil base extracts. The pressure and temperature conditions of SFE method were $70{\sim}80kgf/cm^2$ and below $30^{\circ}C$, respectively, by newly designed SFE-$CO_2$ system. The yield of extraction was 38.5% at the SFE method and others were 30% in each. Refractive index of oil base extracts, there was also no difference between them as 1.470~1.473. At the SFE method, viscosity observed higher value better than two method that showed as 181.88~209.93 according to the extraction time. Three oil base extracts showed difference in color which was low in b value at SFE, especially. The result of acid value at RPM that was lower as 0.93 mg/g than 2.36~2.64 mg/g of SFE method. Saponification value ranged $182.96{\sim}196.57mg{\cdot}KOH/g$ in three extraction method. At SPM, TBA value showed as 158.96 mg/kg, but in the SFE method ranged higher value as 201.30~347.14 mg/kg. Fatty acids analysed with 18 varieties in all oil base extracts and the composition of saturated/unsaturated fatty acids was 17:83(v/v) at SEF. Especially, ${\omega}$-3,6,9 fatty acids observed at SFE and SPM, but did not appeared at RPM. Fatty acid of ${\omega}$-6,9 detected in all cases.

Essential oils have been used to treat psychophysiological disorders, but their effects on human electroencephalographic (EEG) activity have not been thoroughly investigated. We evaluated the effects of essential oil of Zizyphus jujuba seeds, a Korean folk medicine known as San-Jo-In, on human EEG activity. For this purpose, essential oil was extracted from San-Jo-In by the supercritical carbon dioxide extraction method. The effect of its inhalation on EEG activity was evaluated by measuring the EEG power spectrum (25 indices) in 20 healthy participants. The results of the EEG power spectrum indicated that the values of the theta wave decreased significantly (p<0.05) in the left (from 17.277 to $13.854{\mu}V$) and right parietal (from 15.324 to $13.020{\mu}V$) regions compared to the other regions. During the inhalation of San-Jo-In oil, the EEG spectrum values of fast alpha, relative gamma, and spectral edge frequency increased 50% compared to those before inhalation. The values of the fast alpha wave increased significantly (p<0.05) in the left prefrontal (from 0.063 to $0.085{\mu}V$), right prefrontal (from 0.064 to $0.085{\mu}V$), and left frontal (from 0.073 to $0.100{\mu}V$) regions following inhalation of the San-Jo-In essential oil. The changes in the EEG activities following inhalation of San-Jo-In suggest that the oil can improve psychological well-being by increasing attention and relaxation.
