Based on a BoxBehnken design,response surface methodology was used to optimize the effects of processing parameters of extraction from Scutellaria barbata on total alkaloids yield. Three independent variables such as extraction time (X1), liquid-solid ratio (X2) and ultrasonic frequency (X3) were study. The P-value indicated that both extraction time (X1) and ultrasonic frequency (X3) had signi...

The extraction yield of a microextraction technique depends on thermodynamic and kinetics factors. Both of these factors have been the focus of intensive research in the last few years. The extraction yield can be increased by synthesizing and using novel materials with favorable distribution constants (one of the thermodynamic factors) for target analytes. The extraction yield can also be incr...

The purpose of this study was to extract phenolic compounds from olive leaves of Koroneiki, Roghani and Mission varieties by maceration and Microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) methods with different solvents. Our results revealed that the extraction method, solvent and variety had a significant effect on the amount of phenolic compounds (p<0.05). In both extraction methods, Koroneiki and Missio...

Effects of varying temperatures with constant pressure of solvent on extraction efficiency of two chemically different alkaloids were studied. Camptothecin (CPT) from stem of Nothapodytes nimmoniana (Grah.) Mabb. and piperine from the fruits of Piper nigrum L. were extracted using Accelerated Solvent Extractor (ASE). Three cycles of extraction for a particular sample cell at a given temperature...

phenolic compounds, especially those of plant origin, constitute an essential part of the human diet, and are of considerable interest due to their antioxidant properties. in this study, ultrasound-assisted extraction (uae), microwave-assisted extraction (mae), as well as maceration extraction (me) methods were applied for phenolic compounds’ extraction from pistachio green hull. response surfa...

It is reported that salvianolic acid B, a bioactive phenolic compound contained in the root of Salvia miltiorrhiza, exhibits a much stronger activity in free radical scavenging and antioxidance than those of vitamin E. When a conventional refluxing method is adopted to extract salvianolic acid B from the root, in which the materials are subjected to higher temperature and longer time, the yield...

A model based on information theory, which allows yield managers to determine optimal portfolio of yield analysis technologies for both the R&D and volume production environments, is presented. The information extraction per experimentation cycle and information extraction per unit time serve as benchmarking metrics for yield learning. They enable yield managers to make objective comparisons of...

The aim of study was to extract pectin from papaya peel and study its physico‐chemical characteristics. Pectin was extracted using hydrochloric acid and citric acid, at different time, temperature and pH combinations. Extraction was done at temperatures 60°C, 70°C and 80°C for time 30 mins, 45 mins and 60 mins, and pH 2, 2.5 and 3.0 respectively. Using hydrochloric acid, the yield of pectin was...
