“…90%), although the process employing microalgae treated with airflow followed by SFE provided a faster extraction kinetics [20]. Nevertheless, the extraction of lipids with sc-CO 2 from wet biomass (up to 20% of water content) has been successfully achieved with good results both for extraction yield as well as for extraction kinetics [16,20].…”

At present, there is an increasing demand for natural bioactive compounds able to provide health benefits when included and consumed in a functional food or in a nutraceutical. In this regard, microalgae are promising natural sources with great potential, not only considering that these organisms are largely underexplored, but also because microalgae can be produced at large scale and their chemical composition might be tuned to over-synthesize a particular target compound. The use of advanced sustainable extraction techniques to recover these bioactive compounds is a must nowadays. This work presents an overview on the use of compressed fluid-based extraction techniques to obtain bioactive compounds from microalgae that can be seen also as a first step towards its recovery at larger scale. When relevant, the description of the analytical procedure used to chemically characterize the bioactive compounds is also included.

“…The first one deals with the extraction of high value lipids (such as arachidonic acid (ARA)) obtained from the heterotrophic fermentation of a wild-type strain of the fungus Mortierella alpina (MA). These researchers presented a processing technology using dimethylether (DME) to extract wet biomass [33] thus overcoming the high costs of drying and the poor yields due to the form or type of lipid present, and compare it against CO 2 extraction. The extraction yields obtained by extraction with DME (at 4 MPa and temperatures between 40 and 60 • C) were higher than using CO 2 (at 30 MPa and equal temperatures) being close to the total quantity of lipid present measured by exhaustive chloroform/methanol extraction.…”

“…Figure 2 a presents the interaction between the temperature and the ratio of solvent to material The extraction yield initially increased with increasing solvent-to-material ratio; This increase was likely caused by the increasing difference in concentration between the material and the solvent, which correspondingly improved the mass transfer rate and accelerated dissolution of the fragrant volatiles 32 , our result further confirmed this claim. Furthermore, DME was easily liquefiable at or slightly above room temperature, was miscible with polar solvents in its liquefied state and was a good solvent for extracting lipophilic compounds from both wet and dry feed materials 33,34 . DME approved high affinity for oily substances and partially miscibility with water.…”
