Advances in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction of Bioactive Substances from Different Parts of Ginkgo biloba L.

Abstract

Ginkgo biloba L. has always been a popular area of research due to its various active ingredients and pharmacological effects. Ginkgo biloba is rich in ginkgo flavonoids, ginkgolides, and ginkgolic acid, with anti-inflammation, antioxidation, neuroprotection, anti-platelet agglutination, hypolipidemic effect, anti-cancer, and anti-radiation properties. There are many methods to extract and separate the active components of ginkgo. Among them, supercritical carbon dioxide fluid extraction (SFE-CO2) is known for its green, clean, and environment-friendly properties. In this paper, the pharmacological activities, the active components, and structures of different parts of ginkgo, the extraction methods of its effective ingredients, and the application of the SFE-CO2 method for the extraction and separation of active ingredients in Ginkgo biloba from leaves, seeds, pollen, and roots were reviewed, in order to make best use of ginkgo resources, and provide support and references for the development of SFE-CO2 of active components from Ginkgo biloba.

Extracts from Frangula alnus Mill. and Their Effects on Environmental and Probiotic Bacteria

“…Sharp bands of the hydroxyl group can be also observed for diluted solutions. Therefore, for more polar compounds, an attempt could be made to dilute plant samples in the case of the need of usage selected extractants for the process of extracting bioactive compounds from a given plant [ 1 , 31 , 32 ]. A good example is the separation of an isopropanol-based extract [ 33 , 34 ], which is less polar than methanol but still belongs to compounds with a high dipole momentum.…”

Major Phytochemicals: Recent Advances in Health Benefits and Extraction Method

“…With an increase in pressure at a constant temperature, the density of supercritical fluid increases, thereby increasing its extraction capacity. The higher the mass transfer rate of supercritical fluid, the higher will be the sample-to-solvent ratio and flow rate, but the faster the flow rate, the lower the resident time of solvent used [ 174 , 175 ]. SFE has been used in different fields such as the chemical, fuel, food, and pharmaceutical industries.…”

Aceites esenciales de origen natural: características químicas, técnicas de extracción y potencial aplicación biológica

“…Los AE's obtenidos con esta técnica demostraron ser de calidad superior, con mejores actividades funcionales y biológicas (Capuzzo et al, 2013;Yahya et al, 2018) en comparación con los AE's producidos por hidrodestilación o con disolventes (Lucinewton et al, 2013). Además, algunos estudios mostraron mejores propiedades antibacterianas y antifúngicas para el producto supercrítico (Li et al, 2021;Herrero et al, 2015) extraccIón de líQuIdo subcrítIco Algunos trabajos de investigación, ilustraron el uso de agua en su estado subcrítico para la extracción de los AE's. El estado subcrítico se alcanza cuando la presión es más alta que la presión crítica (Pc), pero la temperatura es más baja que la temperatura crítica (Tc), o viceversa (Cheng et al, 2021).…”
