Effect of Solvent on Nanoparticle Production of β‐Carotene by a Supercritical Antisolvent Process

Abstract: Production of micro-to nano-sized particles of b-carotene was investigated by means of solution-enhanced dispersion by supercritical fluids (SEDS). b-Carotene was dissolved in dichloromethane (DCM), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), n-hexane, or ethyl acetate, and supercritical CO 2 served as an antisolvent. The effects of the organic solvents, operating pressure, and temperature were examined. The morphologies of the particles produced by the SEDS were observed by field emission-scanning electron microscopy and pa… Show more

“…At these conditions, the increasing operating temperature leads to the decreasing CO2 density, thus the dissolving ability of CO2 also decreases. Then supersaturation will decrease and the bigger size of -carotene particles products will be formed [17,25,29,30]. Imsanguan et al [29] investigated the effect of operating temperature on the SCCO2 antisolvent to precipitate andrographolide.…”

“…Nerome, et al [ 112 ] prepared β-carotene NPs by SEDS method through pumping β-carotene (1.5 mg/mL) in different solvents (dichloromethane, n -hexane, ethyl acetate or N ,N-dimethylformamide) at a flow rate of 0.25 mL/min into a precipitator under different pressure (8–12 MPa) and temperature (40–60 °C) conditions. SCF-CO 2 was simultaneously pumped at 20 mL/min for mixing with β-carotene solution and extrusion through a coaxial nozzle ( Figure 13 A).…”

“…Because of the advantages of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ), namely its nontoxicity, nonflammability, environmental friendliness, and mild supercritical conditions, CO 2 is recognized as a green solvent and is commonly used in the SAS process. In the literature, the SAS process has been demonstrated to be superior to the conventional crystallization process for the modification of the solid-state properties of pharmaceutical and biological compounds, such as baicalein, curcumin, palmitoylethanolamide, quercetin, β-carotene, ellagic acid, etoposide, indomethacin, mangiferin, rutin, tetracycline, aescin, carbamazepine, curcumin, gefitinib, levofloxacin, primidone, warfarin, and naringenin [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31]. Using SAS, crystals with sizes in the range of microns to nanometers, regular crystal habit, and narrow size distribution can be produced.…”
