A large-scale process to extract flavonoids from Moringa oleifera leaf by subcritical ethanol was developed and HPLC-MS analysis was conducted to qualitatively identify the compounds in the extracts. To optimize the effects of process parameters on the yield of flavonoids, a Box-Behnken design combined with response surface methodology was conducted in the present work. The results indicated that the highest extraction yield of flavonoids by subcritical ethanol extraction could reach 2.60% using 70% ethanol at 126.6°C for 2.05h extraction. Under the optimized conditions, flavonoids yield was substantially improved by 26.7% compared with the traditional ethanol reflux method while the extraction time was only 2h, and obvious energy saving was observed. FRAP and DPPH assays showed that the extracts had strong antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities.

Star anise has been used for a long time in improving human health and curing diseases, owing to its unlimited components with complex chemical structures and a wide range of bioactivities. This study is aimed to investigate the influence of extraction methods (steam distillation, ethanol Soxhlet extraction, supercritical carbon dioxide extraction, subcritical n-butane extraction) on the yield, aroma properties, chemical composition, and bioactivity of star anise essential oils. Electronic nose detection revealed the essential oils from subcritical extraction exhibited the most intense aroma, while the essential oils from ethanol Soxhlet extraction had a more complex aroma profile.

The current research aimed to study and measure the solubility of omeprazole (used to treat and reduce stomach acid) for the first time in pure subcritical and ethanol-modified water. These tests have been performed in the 25-130 °C temperature range and constant pressure of 20 bar with the use of 0-10% ethanol weight as the cosolvent. The solubility of omeprazole in subcritical water ranged from 0.

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of different green extraction techniques (GETs) on targeted bioactive compounds from artichoke leaf by-products using deep eutectic solvent extraction (DESE), supercritical CO extraction (SCOE), subcritical water extraction (SWE), and ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE). Moreover, (HR) LC-ESI-QTOF MS/MS and HPLC-PDA analyses were used to perform qualitative-quantitative analysis on the extracts, enabling the detection of several bioactive compounds, including luteolin, luteolin 7--glucoside, luteolin 7--rutinoside, apigenin rutinoside, chlorogenic acid, and cynaropicrin as the most representative ones. SWE showed better results than the other GETs (TPC: 23.

Egg yolk lipids are important components in egg yolk. Compared with proteins, minerals, vitamins and pigments in egg yolk, there is a lack of systematic research on extraction methods and characteristics of yolk lipid. Therefore, in this study, the extraction of egg yolk lipids by supercritical CO fluid extraction (SFE), subcritical propane extraction (SPE) and ethanol solvent extraction (SE) was studied, and the differences in composition and physicochemical properties of the three yolk lipids were analyzed.
