Comparison of charantin extract from Momordica Charantia using modified supercritical carbon dioxide and soxhlet extraction method

Vetiver Oil Extraction Optimization Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Fluid

Optimisation of Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Astaxanthin from Penaeus Monodon Waste Using Ethanol-modified Carbon Dioxide

Some studies demonstrated that astaxanthin surpasses the antioxidant benefits of beta-carotene, zeaxanthin, canthaxanthin, vitamin C, and vitamin E. Penaeus monodon (Tiger shrimp) is one of the most valuable traded crustacean products in which astaxanthin can be found in its by-products. The extraction of thermolabile compound like carotenoids at lower temperatures through supercritical carbon ...

Charantin: An important lead compound from Momordica charantia for the treatment of diabetes

The development of effective and safe anti-diabetic agent is still a major challenge for modern scientific research. Traditionally fruit juice of Momordica charantia has been used for treatment of diabetes for centuries. Charantin, a natural steroidal glycoside present in the fruits of this medicinal plant, has been reported to possess potential hypoglycemic activity. However, this phytoconstit...

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction of Bioactive Compounds from Feijoa (Feijoa sellowiana) Leaves

Background and Objectives: Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) technique has been studied for extraction of bioactive compounds from Feijoa sellowiana leaves. Results were compared with those obtained from conventional ethanolic extraction (CE). Materials and Methods: Results: The best supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction conditions was determined as 250 bar of pressure, 50 &deg...

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction of Glycyrrhizin from Licorice Root

As the development of the natural medicine, the glycyrrhizin extracted from the licorice root was found to have potential therapeutic value in the treatment of several diseases, especially available for anti-SARS virus . Therefore, the purpose of this work was to find an optimal method to extract and refine the glycyrrhizin. In this work, the extraction of glycyrrhizin by means of organic solve...
