EFFECT OF FREEZE DRYING ON THE CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF LEMON BALM LEAVES (Melissa officinalis, L.)
This research focuses on the analysis of the chemical component of essential oil of lemon balm. The essential oil of leaves was obtained by extraction. The chemical components of the essential oil of lemon balm were analyzed by capillary GC and GC/MS and 8 substances were identified. The quality of the final product depends heavily on the operation of freeze drying (FD). It was found that essen...
متن کاملOptimizing the Process of Supercritical Extraction of Lemon Balm (melissa Officinalis L.)
This work investigates the process of extraction of lemon balm (Melissa officinalis L.) by treatment with carbon dioxide at supercritical conditions. The process kinetics is studied at different operational conditions, and the influence of some important regime parameters (pressure, temperature particle size, solvent flow-rate) on the extraction yield is experimentally determined. Besides the i...
متن کاملIncrease of Caryophyllene Oxide in Ageing Lemon Balm Leaves (Melissa officinalis L.) - A Consequence of Lipid Peroxidation?
Oxidative processes, especially lipid peroxidation (LPO), are assumed to increase during ageing. In an attempt to provide experimental evidence for this assumption lemon balm plants (Melissa officinalis L.) of different age and location were analyzed for oxidatively caused changes in the etheric oil composition. The investigation revealed that the caryophyl lene oxide (CarO) content of lemon b...

متن کاملPROTECTIVE EFFECTS OF EXOGENOUS NITRIC OXIDE AGAINST LEAD TOXICITY IN LEMON BALM (Melissa officinalis L.)
This research investigated the effects of exogenous sodium nitroprusside (SNP) supplementation as nitric oxide (NO) on alleviating Pb-induced oxidative damage in lemon balm (Melissa officinalis L.) plants. Pb (100, 300 and 500 μM) alone and in combination with SNP (100 and 200 μM) were given to hydroponically grown Melissa officinalis L. plants. The findings suggested that in Pbtreated plants, ...
