Vetiver Oil Extraction Optimization Using Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Fluid

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction of Borage Seed Oil

The oil from the seeds of Borago officinalis L. (borage) is a major commercial source of ?-linolenic acid. The fatty acid has a great potential therapeutic value in the treatment of several diseases. In the present work the efficiency of high pressure extraction of borage seed oil containing ?linolenic acid in high concentrations was investigated. Extraction was performed by semicontinuous flow...

Genotoxicity of rice bran oil extracted by supercritical CO2 extraction.

Rice bran oil extracted by supercritical CO2 extraction (RB-SCE) reportedly exhibits pharmacological activities such as antioxidant and in vivo hair growth-inducing effects. Such activities raise the possibility of the development of novel hair growth-inducing agents using RB-SCE. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential genotoxic effects of RB-SCE in three short-term mutagenicity...

black nightshade oil extraction using supercritical fluid carbon dioxide

black nightshade is a weed plant that grows abundantly in most parts of iran. in this study, central composite response surface method to investigate the effect of temperature 35-55 °c and pressures 170-350 bar during the dynamic time of 120 min, the particle size of 150 microns and flow rate of 3 liters per minute on the efficiency of oil extracted from the fruits of black nightshade and optim...

Oil Extraction from Millet Seed – Chemical Evaluation of Extracted Oil

ABSTRACT: The object of this study is to extract the oil from millets and evaluate the chemical properties of the extracted oil. Commercial millet oil was obtained by cold solvent extraction adopting soxhlet procedure. Quantitative and qualitative tests concerned with the non-saponifiable matter, fatty acid composition, phosphorus content representing total phospholipids, refractive index, pero...
