Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) was coupled to a custom-built atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) source of an ion trap mass spectrometer (ITMS). This method was developed for the monitoring of static or dynamic carbon dioxide extraction of volatile aroma compounds in real time. The gas phase APCI source resulted in simple spectra where the extraction of individual compounds could be monitored. A classical mint extraction was used to demonstrate the possibilities of the method. Influence of cell loading and standard injection possibilities are described. Limit of detection of the system was 0.5 nl or lower for a series of test compounds. Prospect for a fast method for extraction and quantification was raised and discussed.

Coffee pulp (CP) is the by-product of coffee processing that urgently needs to be revalorized using sustainable technologies. This work applied a design of experiment (DoE) for modeling the extraction of bioactive compounds from CP using supercritical carbon dioxide (sc-CO) with ethanol as a co-solvent under variable conditions (temperature, pressure, and ethanol percentage). Considering extraction efficiency (per unit of CP) and extraction selectivity (per unit of extract), results showed that ethanol percentage significantly enhanced the efficiency of total phenolic content, as well as the selectivity of chlorogenic acid and protocatechuic acid (p < 0.

This study aimed to promote the valorization of lupin seeds by extracting both non-polar and polar fractions to produce a protein-rich flour suitable for food applications. Green extraction methods such as Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) and SFE followed by gas-expanded liquid extraction with ethanol/CO mixtures were employed. SFE yielded lupin oil with extraction yields ranging from 2.
