Optimization of mechanically assisted coamorphous dispersion extraction of hydrophobic compounds from plant tea (Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium) using water

Sustainable Mechanochemical-Assisted Extraction of Active Saponins from Plants with Solid Acid and Alkalis

“…Guo et al reported that the extraction efficiency of flavonoids from Sea buckthorn berry by MCAE method was 198.33% higher than that of HRE at room temperature, and the extraction time was shortened without the use of organic solvents. 11 To date, there have been many reports on the successful application of MCAE methods in plant materials for food and pharmaceutical industries, including Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, 12 Mori Fructus, 13 chrysanthemum, 14 pomegranate peels, 15 Fangchi, and others. 16 However, at present, most of the chemical auxiliaries in the application of MCAE are solid alkali reagents, which need to be adjusted to the pH value by hydrochloric acid.…”
