Exploring the Sequential-Selective Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) of Flavonoids and Esterified Triterpenoids from L. Flowers.

One of the many advantages of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) is the possibility of using it in sequential and selective approaches. This is due to the use of a dynamic extraction mode in addition to the possibility of altering the composition of the modifier during the extraction process. In this study, the optimization of L.

Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) of Polar Compounds from Leaves: Use of Ethanol/Water as a Green Polarity Modifier.

The use of bioactive plant extracts in cosmetic products is a common practice. Most of these extracts are obtained by maceration in organic solvents, and depending on which solvents are used, the polarity and the structure of the target molecules will vary. Polyphenols are polar compounds that often display antioxidant and/or antibacterial activities.
