Objectives : Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill contains many nutrients and exhibits high physiological functions. It has been shown that Schisandra seed and pamace contains more nutrients than fruits and thus have higher antioxidant efficacy. In this study, seed and pamace of Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill (SPSC) were treated with hot-melt extrudate (HME) extrusion to produce water-soluble nanoparticles. Methods : SPSC was treated with HME to prepare nanoparticles. In this process, excipients (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, pullulan, 2-hydroxylpropyl-beta-cyclodextrin, lecithin) were added to prepare a hydrophilic polymer matrix. To compare and analyze the antioxidant effect and schizandrin content, total flavonoid content, total phenol content and ABTS assay were measured. To confirm the effect of increasing the water solubility of the particles, particle size and water solubility index measurements were performed. The molecular of the material was analyzed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Results : The particle size of HME extrudates decreased, while total phenols, flavonoids, schizandrin, antioxidant effect, and solubility increased. Through FT-IR, it was confirmed that the SPSC and the extrudate exhibit the same chemical properties. In addition, it was confirmed that when extracted with water, it exhibited a higher antioxidant effect than the ethanol extract. Conclusions : HME technology increased the solubility of SPSC, which are processing by-products, and improved their antioxidant effect to a higher degree. It was confirmed that SPSC could be used as an eco-friendly, high value-added material.

Increasing the oil volume in the oil : water mixtures using isopropyl myristate, oleic acid as oils, the solubilities of methyl, propyl and butyl parabens and the MICs (minimum hibitory concentrations) to E. coli were increased. But in liquid paraffin, the solubility was reversed. The relation between MIC and solubility of parabens had constant factor of 0.7 as saturation fraction percent. The solubility of methyl paraben was crossed over in those of propyl and butyl parabens, when the oil volume was increased. When the oil was used over the cross-over point, methyl paraven was useful to preserve the systems, and below the cross-over point the more lipophilic propyl and/or butyl parabens were effective.

To improve the solubility properties of indomethacin, a poorly water-soluble drug, some attempts were made with surfactants, such as sodium deoxycholate, sodium laurylsulfate and polysorbate-80. The enhancement effect in solubility was found to be due to the micellar solubilization and dependent on the concentration of surfactants, pH and temperature. The mechanism of interaction was suggested to be attributed to the formation of mixed micelles between the drug and solubilizers.

The solubility of H2S is an important parameter for modeling H2S absorption. Since the direct measurement of H2S solubility in aqueous amine solutions is impossible, this work initially attempted to develop an H2S analogy method, however, this was unsuccessful. Consequently, H2S solubilities were measured in aqueous amines which were completely protonated with HCI over a temperature range of 25-60℃. The solvents investigated in this work included 0-50% aqueous solutions of methyldiethanolamine and diethanolamine. Thereafter, a new empirical correlation was developed that can predict Henry's constant for H2S using only the solubility of H2S in water and t도 molecular weight of the aqueous solvent.

In this study, the extent of water removal in the high-moisture coal was measured. The simplified adsorption model was developed to predict the extent of water removal. The water removal was observed to increase up to 25% at saturation condition of 25℃. The modeling work shows that adsorption contributes the water removal only by 3%, whereas other factors such as CO₂ solubility and wettability would be responsible for the water removal.

The solubility of protein and phytate was measured at various pH's in distilled water and at various concentrations of NaCl, $CaCl_2\;and\;Na_2SO_3$ solutions, and then optimum condition for producing low phytate protein isolate from perilla flour was investigated. The protein solubility in water showed minimum at pH 4.0 and increased at pH higher or lower than 4.0, while phytate solubility was highest at pH 5.0 and decreased at pH higher or lower than 5.0. In NaCl solution, protein solubility was lowest between pH 3.0-4.0, while phytate solubility was high between pH 2.0-5.0 and abruptly decreased above PH 6.0. In $Na_2SO_3$ solution, protein solubility was lowest between pH 2.0-3.0 and phytate solubility showed maximum values between pH $5.0{\sim}6.0$, and it's solubility was low in 3% salt concentration at all pH ranges. In $CaCl_2$ solution, protein solubility in 3% salt concentration was relatively low at all pH ranges, and phytate solubility showed highest values between pH $2.0{\sim}3.0$ and abruptly decreased (1.0%) above pH 4.0. In order to make low phytate protein isolate, defatted perilla flour protein was extracted at pH9.0 and precipitated at pH 4.0 in 3% NaCl solution. The yield of low phytate protein isolate was 61.4% of total protein. This protein was found to contain 0.02% phytate by weight.

Tannins in plant foods and beverages may produce antinutritional or toxic effects although some proteins with high affinity for tannins seem to function as defense mechanism to tannin toxicity. Our objectives were to investigate of tea tannins, iron and protein and to evaluate the role of proteins in tannin effects on iron solubility. Iron solubility in vitro was measured using tea with and without proteins. Mixtures of tea, protein in varying concentrations(either gelatin or bovine serum albumin), and iron(eithe 10 or 50ug/mL) were prepared. Controls contained water in place of tea. Iron bioavailability was assessed by measuring iron solubility in the simulated gastric condition with pepsin digestion. Bound iron was removed by centrifugation and soluble in tea alone. When iron concentratin was 10ug/mL, addition of small amounts of protein to tea dramatically reduced iron solubility, but solubility of iron increased in the tea mixturea as the concentration of protein was increased. The percnetage of iron that precipitated was much greater at 10ug Fe/mL than the values at 50ug Fe/mL suggesting that the iron binding sites on the tea-protein complex was saturated. These results suggest that interactions of iron with tea tannins are influenced by the concentratins of protein and iron.

To find out the feasibility of the separating/enriching esters from aqueous solution using FASs (Fluoloalkyl-silanes-coupling agent)-surface modified hydrophobic membrane, the solubility parameter of FASs was obtained and compared with those of esters and water. The value of the solubility parameter of FASs (${\delta}_t=16.9$) was almost same with those of esters (ethyl acetate ${\delta}_t=18.1$, propyl acetate ${\delta}_t=18.0$, ethyl propionate ${\delta}_t=17.9$, butyl acetate ${\delta}_t=17.4$, ethyl butyrate ${\delta}_t=17.0$). However, the calculated value of the solubility parameter of water was ${\delta}_t=47.8$, which was far from the value of the solubility parameter of FASs (${\delta}_t=16.9$). This means that the FASs-modified membrane has a much higher affinity to esters than water. The experimental results of permeation flux of esters used in this study showed that the order of permeation flux predicted by the solubility parameter was almost coincide with experimental results. It might be concluded that the solubility parameter may be applicable for a separating/enriching flavors from aqueous natural-flavor solution, in which esters are main components of natural flavors.

Although Cyclosporin A (CsA) is a powerful immunosuppresant with little adverse effect on the bone marrow, CsA administered orally in the general formulation cannot obtain high bioavailability due to its poor aqueous solubility. To improve the solubility and enhance the bioavailability of poorly water-soluble CsA, many different approaches have been made in our laboratory. (omitted)
