In this study, extraction of essential oil, polyphenols and pectin from orange peel has been optimized using microwave and ultrasound technology without adding any solvent but only "in situ" water which was recycled and used as solvent. The essential oil extraction performed by Microwave Hydrodiffusion and Gravity (MHG) was optimized and compared to steam distillation extraction (SD). No signif...

Background and aim: Extraction of natural antioxidant compounds has recently attracted the attention of researchers. Almond is one of the native products of  Iran, which annually during the process of production , large volumes of waste is achieved. The aim of this study is investigating the impact of two parameters (time and ethanol percentage) on the extraction of phenol and ...

Sage (Salvia officinalis L.) is a popular herb which is native to the Mediterranean region and cultivated worldwide. Sage is an important source of antioxidants used as preservatives and has wider implications for the dietary intake of natural antioxidants.1,2 This antioxidant effect has been attributed to the main phenolic components, caffeic acid dimer – rosmarinic acid1 and flavonoids, being...

The literature does not present any information on ultrasonic assisted extraction of phenolic compounds from Coreopsis tinctoria Nutt. fruits using solvents with different polarities. The objective of this paper is to highlight the potential of ultrasound assisted extraction in the fast preparation of extracts rich in polyphenols of Coreopsis tinctoria Nutt. fruits in good yields. Several param...

The main objective of the current work was to evaluate the suitability of ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) for the recovery of oil from papaya seed as compared to conventional extraction techniques (i.e., Soxhlet extraction (SXE) and solvent extraction (SE)). In the present study, the recovery yield, fatty acid composition and triacylglycerol profile of papaya seed oil obtained from differe...

The aim of this research was to obtain antioxidant active component from Papuan red fruit oil waste using Ultrasound-assisted extraction. done started the making oil, extraction and bioactive analysis (total tocopherol betacaroten) spectrophotometry. result shows that process contains high amount yield at 20 minutes time with total carotenoid 20, 23 ppm absorbance 1.04. Ultrasound assisted meth...

An ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) method was developed for the efficient extraction of natural antioxidants from the flowers of Jatropha integerrima. Four independent variables, including ethanol concentration, solvent/material ratio, ultrasound irradiation time and temperature were studied by single factor experiments. Then, the central composite rotatable design and response surface met...
