Oil Extraction and Evaluation from Yellow Horn Using a Microwave-Assisted Aqueous Saline Process.

This study investigates an aqueous salt process (ASP) combined with microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) for the seed oil extraction from yellow horn ( Bunge). The NaCl concentration in the oil extraction process affected the oil extraction yield. Box-Behnken design (BBD) and response surface methodology (RSM) were used to optimize the extraction process.

Selenylation modification can enhance antioxidant activity of Potentilla anserina L. polysaccharide.

Potentilla anserina L. polysaccharide had been selenizingly modified by nitric acid-selenious acid method with microwave-assistant. The optimal reaction parameters on selenylation modification were time 116 min, temperature 63°C, microwave power 190 W and the actual value of selenium content was 2690.
