Cloud point extraction (CPE), a promising and simple technique for the separation of organic compounds using surfactants (Genapol X-080 [oligoethylene glycol monoalkyl ether] and PEG 8000 [polyethylene glycol with molecular weight of 8000]), was used to recover polyphenols from wine sludge (wine production waste). The effect of various parameters such as surfactant concentration, temperature, a...

The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility using Cloud Point Extraction (CPE) isolate natural antioxidants (polyphenols) from apricot cannery waste (ACW). Four different food-grade surfactants (Genapol X-080, PEG 8000, Tween 80, and Lecithin) were tested at varying concentrations evaluate effectiveness technique. It observed that low in one-step CPE resulted less than 65% po...

Small RNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), are important regulators of plant development and gene expression. The acquisition of high-quality small RNAs is the first step in the study of its expression and function analysis, yet the extraction method of small RNAs in recalcitrant plant tissues with various secondary metabolites is not well established, especia...

The effects of extraction solvents (hexane, ethyl-acetate, acetone, ethanol, methanol, and water) on the content of phytochemicals including total polyphenols, flavonoids and condensed tannins, as well as antioxidant activities of walnut green husk were investigated. The results showed that extraction solvents significantly affected phytochemicals content and antioxidant activities of walnut gr...
