Abstract
|
|
|
|
The extraction of glycyrrhizic acid from licorice using supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO) was investigated with respect to the effects of extraction parameters such as the kind and amount of modifier, temperature, pressure, and extraction time. The conventional organic solvent extraction was also conducted for a quantitative comparison. The content of glycyrrhizic acid in crude extracts was analyzed by HPLC and the yield of glycyrrhizic acid was computed as a weight percent recovery. The optimal pressure and temperature for SCCO extraction were found to be 40 MPa and 80, respectively, when SCCO was modified with 70% aqueous ethanol. Under the same pressure and temperature, the highest recovery was attained to be 104.57% in the first 60 min when the concentration of 60%, aqueous ethanol in SCCO was 15%.
