“…According to the literature (Berrada et al, 2008;Horie, Takegami, Toya, & Nakazawa, 2003;Juan, González, Soriano, Moltó, & Mañes, 2005) temperature and pressure are the most important variables that can affect the extraction efficiency by PLE because the solubility power is increased. In order to see if extraction could be improved, it was decided to perform various experiments with acetonitrile by changing temperature (20, 40, 70 and 95 C) and pressure (500, 1000, 1500, and 2000 psi).…”
