introduction: fructans are an important product of the industry of prebiotics. in addition to their interesting nutritional and health benefit properties, fructans are also used in food formulations for their techno-functional properties such as fat substitute, bulk agent, water retention. serish (eremurus spectabilis) belongs to the family of liliaceae and geographically distributed in the reg...

In this study, the diffusivity and volumetric mass transfer coefficients for the extraction of β-carotene from crude palm oil using CO2 solvent in supercritical fluid were determined in the pressure range of 7.5-17.5 MPa and temperature range of 80-120 ºC. For this purpose, a statistical method was applied in order to minimize the number of experiments required. The volumetric ma...

Background & Aim: Sesame is one of the oldest cultivated plants in the world and is one of the oldest oily products used by humans. Sesame oil is an important industrial, oral and medicinal oil. Today, the use of ultrasound has grown significantly due to its effects on food storage and processing. Experimental: In this research, the response level model w...

Superheated water extraction (SWE), is a novel method, used to extract proteins or other bioactive component from agriculture products. Methods: In this study, the extract from quinoa-barley malt (in a proportion of 30:70) was treated by SWE method. The effect of extraction time (15, 30, and 45 min) on physicochemical and functional properties of the extract was determined at 120 ºC. Results: T...

abstract: aqueous enzymatic extraction of oil from pistacia khinjuk was performed using cellulase. the central composite design was used to optimize the parameters that are significant to the process. the influence of three regressors on the percentage of oil recovery from seed was evaluated using second-order polynomial multiple regression model. analysis of variance showed a high coefficient ...

agar is a gelling biopolymer that can be extracted from cell wall of some red algae. in this present, response surface methodology was used to investigate the procedure of agar melting point and gelling temperature from cultural algae of gracilariopsis persica. independent variables, alkalinity concentration (2, 3.2, 5, 6.8, -8%), extraction temperature (90, 96, 105, 114, 120°c) and extraction ...

Background and objectives: Colchicum kurdicum (Bornm.) Stef. is a flowering perennial monocotyledon plant that has many important bioactive compounds especially colchicine and colchicine derivatives. In this study, the ultrasound-assisted acidic-solvent extraction method coupled with response-surface method was presented as the successful method for large scale extract...

modern hydrometallurgical techniques have been adopted to produce high-purity gold. many extractants were used for the extraction of gold from various synthetic solutions from which dibutyl carbitol (dbc) had a unique superiority. kinetics of process was studied in this paper and the influence of several parameters such as stirring speed, agitation time, impeller type, interfacial area, [aucl4]...

the genus haplophyllum, which belongs to the rutaceae family, includes 18 species in iran. in this study, after collecting plant material, botanical identification and suitable drying, the essential oils from aerial parts of haplophyllum robustum bge. were extracted by three different isolation techniques, conventional hydrodistillation (hd), microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (mahd) and solv...
