EFFECT OF THE BENCH SCALE EXTRACTION CONDITIONS ON Pinus radiata BARK EXTRACT YIELD, ANTIOXIDANT PROPERTIES AND COMPOSITION
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many pine bark extracts have antioxidant properties. This work examined bench scale extraction on the yield, the composition and antioxidant properties of Pinus radiata. Acetone solvent (98.7% w/w at 120 °C) yielded maximum phenols concentration, tannins concentration, anti-radical activity (DPPH) and reducing activity (FRAP), although its extraction yield was the lowest. When the organic solvent in the mixture decreased, the chelating activity increased (ICA) and antiradical and reducing activities decreased. The extract largest yield was obtained with water at 120oC, but the antioxidant properties were relatively poor. Taxifolin (dihydroquercetin) and catechin were the main extract components detected by RP-HPLC. The best extraction conditions for high extractive yield and antioxidant properties was achieved with ethanol/water at 120 °C.

The purpose of this investigation was to assess the potential of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) bark and knot extractives to function as preservative chemicals. Scots pine was chosen to due to its importance in Finland; bark and knots were chosen due to their high extractives content and lack of industrial applications. The bark and knots of Scots pine were extracted with acetone and the extr...

Gas exchange was measured on a pruned Pinus radiata D. Don hedge and on a long-branch P. radiata tree near Hamilton, New Zealand, in spring 1993 when soil water content was close to field capacity. Foliage at the end of long branches (9.0 m) showed a marked drop in net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance as the saturation deficit increased, whereas foliage on short branches (0.5 m) sho...
