“…UAE has been proved to be an effective technique for extraction especially by a drastic reduction of extraction time (Liu, Zhang, & Wei, 2015). Also it is reproducible and could be used to recover many compounds contained in the vegetal matrices (Altemimi, Watson, Choudhary, Dasari, & Lightfoot, 2016;Chanioti & Tzia, 2017;Clodoveo, Durante, La Notte, Punzi, & Gambacorta, 2013;Goldsmith, Vuong, Stathopoulos, Roach, & Scarlett, 2018;Nour, Trandafir, & Cosmulescu, 2016;Perrier et al, 2017;Zhao, Liu, Wang, & Ma, 2017). Combining several mechanisms such as erosion, shear forces, sonoporation, fragmentation, capillary effect, and detexturation, resulting in a gradual physical damage of the plant material, UAE technique eventually improves solvent penetration to inner structures (Chemat et al, 2017;Esclapez, García-Pérez, Mulet, & Cárcel, 2011;Khadhraoui et al, 2018;Shirsath et al, 2017).…”
