The aim of this study was to evaluate antibacterial activity of Pistachia khinjuk fruit oil and extra virgin olive oil. The Pistacia khinjuk fruit oil was extracted using n-hexane by cold maceration and Soxhlet method. Antibacterial activity was evaluated using disk diffusion and micro broth dilution methods on food pathogenic bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Listeria monoc...

The effects of different solvent systems (methanol, ethanol, acetone, and their 50% aqueous concentrations) and extraction procedures (microwave, ultrasound, Soxhlet and maceration) on the antioxidant activity of aerial parts of Potentilla atrosanguinea were investigated by three different bioassays: 2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt (ABTS), 2,2′diphenyl-1-p...

The inadvertent ingestion of contaminated soil can be an important source of pesticide exposure, especially in young children. The actual level of a pesticide that is available for absorption into a biological system may be much lower than the overall contamination level due to the interaction of each chemical with the solid matrix. This bioaccessibility is dependent on characteristics of the c...

Seeds are another product in addition to leaves (raw materials for teas) of tea (Camellia sinensis L.) plant. The great increase of tea consumption in recent years raises the challenge of finding commercial applications for tea seeds. In the present study, supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO(2)) extraction edible oil from tea seed was carried out, response surface methodology (RSM) was used to ...

In the course of the nutrition investigations in this laboratoq m-e have occasion to make a great many estimations of fat in samples of portions of animals and in feeding stuffs. The usual Soxhlet extraction of the thoroughly dried sample with ether is the method that has been employed. It is understood that this method gives a determination of the crude fat or total ethersoluble material. By t...

The efficacy of decoction in extracting mycobactericidal compounds from Flourensia cernua (Hojasé) leaves and fractionation with solvents having ascending polarity was compared with that of (i) ethanol extraction by still maceration, extraction with a Soxhlet device, shake-assisted maceration, or ultrasound-assisted maceration, followed by fractionation with n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and n-butan...

Galium aparine L. is an annual herbaceous plant of Rubiaceae family. It has therapeutic effects as contains various bioactive components. The aim this study was to investigate the extraction methods on amount phytochemical components G. aparine. change in directly affects antioxidant and antidiabetic activity. In study, three different methods, soxhlet, maceration ultrasonic, using methanol sol...

Abstract. Green extraction method by combination of stirring with no presence heat and the use aqueous as solvent were highlighted in this study. Various solvents (aqueous, chloroform, ethyl acetate, hexane methanol) two methods (stirring Soxhlet) used to study their effect on yield, qualitative phytochemical content, antioxidant properties Diplazium esculentum Retz. Stenochlaena palustris. Sti...
