    A comparison study between ultrasound-assisted and enzyme-assisted extraction of anthocyanins from blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum L.)

    Blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum L.) is a fruit rich in vitamins, fatty acids, minerals, essential oils and phenolic com-pounds, including anthocyanins. In the present work, two anthocyanin extraction methods from blackcurrant samples based on Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction (UAE) and Enzyme-Assisted Extraction (EAE) have been developed. A Plackett-Burman design with seven variables has been preliminary used for both UAE and EAE in order to determine the most influential variables in each methodology. After that, a Box-Behnken design was employed to optimize the extraction methods. The composition of the extraction solvent (% EtOH in water) has been the most influential variable for both UAE and EAE. The optimal extraction times have been 5 min for UAE and 10 min for EAE. No differences have been observed in anthocyanin extraction with both methodologies. Both methods have been applied to blackcurrant-derived products and proven their suitability for quality control analysis.This work has been supported by the project "EQC2018-005135-P" (Equipment for liquid chromatography by means of mass spectrometry and ion chromatography) of the State Sub-program of Research In-frastructures and Technical Scientific Equipment

    Extraction of Anthocyanins and Total Phenolic Compounds from Açai (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) Using an Experimental Design Methodology. Part 3: Microwave-Assisted Extraction

    In this work, two methods based on microwave-assisted extraction techniques for the extraction of both anthocyanins and total phenolic compounds from acai have been developed. For that, a full factorial design (Box-Behnken design) has been used to optimize the following four variables: solvent composition (25-75% methanol in water), temperature (50-100 degrees C), pH (2-7), and sample/solvent ratio (0.5 g: 10 mL-0.5 g: 20 mL). The anthocyanins and total phenolic compounds content have been determined by ultra high-pressure liquid chromatography and Folin-Ciocalteu method, respectively. The optimum conditions for the extraction of anthocyanins were 38% MeOH in water, 99.63 degrees C, pH 3.00, at 0.5 g: 10 mL of ratio, while for the extraction of total phenolic compounds they were 74.16% MeOH in water, 99.14 degrees C, pH 5.46, at 0.5 g: 20 mL of ratio. Both methods have shown a high repeatability and intermediate precision with a relative standard deviation lower than 5%. Furthermore, an extraction kinetics study was carried out using extraction periods ranging from 2 min until 25 min. The optimized methods have been applied to acai-containing real samples. The results with such real samples have confirmed that both methods are suitable for a rapid and reliable extraction of anthocyanins and total phenolic compounds

    Enhancing efficiency of enzymatic-assisted extraction method for evaluating bioactive compound analysis in mulberry: an optimization approach

    Get PDF
    The present investigation endeavors to optimize a method based on enzyme-assisted extraction for the efficient retrieval of bioactive compounds from mulberry, leveraging its notable health-promoting properties. A combined approach of Plackett-Burman design followed by Box-Behnken design was employed for determining the crucial extraction parameters and subsequently, refining the process. Optimal conditions consisted of heating 0.15 g of mulberry at 40 degrees C, using 15 mL of 70% EtOH as a solvent at pH 4, 38.46 enzyme units per g of sample, and shaking at 200 rpm. The optimum extraction time study revealed that 5 min of extraction was sufficient to reach the maximum concentration of the bioactive compound. The repeatability and intermediate precision assessment exhibited a coefficient of variation below 5%. Among the diverse mulberry varieties scrutinized, Morus nigra showed the highest anthocyanin content (27.90 +/- 2.14 mg/100 g), while Morus rubra showed the highest concentration of phenolic compounds (121.10 +/- 19.56 mg/100 g). Moreover, the extracted compounds showcased significant antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.Equipment for liquid chromatography by means of mass spectrometry and ion chromatography) of the State Subprogram of Research Infrastructures and Technical Scientific Equipment EQC2018-005135-Pinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
