Abstract:
It is well accepted that plants are a rich source of wide array of high-value bioactives with proven functional food and nutraceutical benefits. The extraction and /or isolation of such functional bioactives from various plant materials is a challenging task due to diversity of their structural features, varying concentration and resources. Due to serious concerns about the process safety and non-ecofriendly nature of conventional extractions, currently, the food and nutra-pharmaceutical industry is keenly persuing the use of non-denatured, safer and healthy plant extracts produced via some green extractions. This lecture is mainly aimed to present an overview of modern green extraction techniques to be applicable for optimal recovery of plant based natural bioactives/ functional components. In this regard, some methodological developments made by our research group for efficient extraction of high-value components (plant oils and phenolics) involving the applications of green routes such as enzyme-assisted-, ultrasound-assisted-, and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) are covered. Moreover, analytical characterization of these bioactives is also presented.
