“…Hydrodistillation is a popular method used for the preparation of essential oils. However, hydrodistillation with excipients is not widely used-we have found just three studies applying this method so far [19][20][21]. Therefore, we have applied magnesium aluminometasilicate in hydrodistillation as the new excipient and have tested its effects on the nutmeg essential oil yield and its composition [22].…”

Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans) essential oil has antimicrobial, antiseptic, antiparasitic, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. We have recently demonstrated that hydrodistillation of nutmeg essential oil by applying magnesium aluminometasilicate as an excipient significantly increases both the content and amount of bioactive substances in the oil and hydrolats. In this study, we aimed to compare the antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory activity of hydrolats and essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation in the presence and absence of magnesium aluminometasilicate as an excipient. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging method revealed that magnesium aluminometasilicate did not significantly improved antioxidant activity of both essential oil and hydrolat. Antibacterial efficiency was evaluated by monitoring growth of 15 bacterial strains treated by a range of dilutions of the essential oil and the hydrolats. Essential oil with an excipient completely inhibited the growth of E. faecalis, S. mutans (referent), and P. multocida, whereas the pure oil was only efficient against the latter strain. Finally, the anti-inflammatory properties of the substances were assessed in a fibroblast cell culture treated with viral dsRNR mimetic Poly I:C. The essential oil with an excipient protected cells against Poly I:C-induced necrosis more efficiently compared to pure essential oil. Also, both the oil and the hydrolats with aluminometasilicate were more efficient in preventing IL-6 release in the presence of Poly I:C. Our results show that the use of magnesium aluminometasilicate as an excipient might change and in some cases improve the biological activities of nutmeg essential oil and hydrolats.

“…The search of green extraction technology with superior efficiency (ie cost-effective, sustainable and capable of producing the essential oil with the same characteristics) and more environment friendly (ie reduction of CO 2 emission and waste water) is very important in all countries worldwide to meet the challenges of the 21 st century (1)(2)(3). The solvent-free microwave extraction (SFME), an innovative clean and efficient technique, has recently gained popularity for isolating the essential oils of different plant parts (bark, flower, leaf) of many scented plants (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8). The principle in the extraction of this technique combines both microwave heating and dry-distillation for extraction the volatiles at the atmospheric pressure (7).…”

The principle in the extraction of this technique combines both microwave heating and dry-distillation for extraction the volatiles at the atmospheric pressure (7). In SFME processes, the in-situ water present inside the tissue of the fresh plant material or a small amount of water added to the dry samples is heated by microwave energy due to dipole rotation, followed by increasing the localized high pressure, which leads to the bursting of the oil cells and the evaporation of the essential oil by azeotropic distillation (8).…”

Classical extraction techniques like hydrodistillation (HD), steam distillation and solvent extraction are high energy-consuming methods with long processing times, solvent consumption or toxic solvent residues (3), which consequently induce further costs (7).…”

This study aimed to apply the solvent-free microwave extraction (SFME) for isolating the essential oil from the rhizomes of cassumunar ginger and study the kinetic mechanism during the extraction process by light microscopy. A central composite design was employed to evaluate the influence of the key variables including microwave power and irradiation time on the oil recovery. The optimal process conditions of SFME were irradiation of the sample at 700 W for 70 min. Microwave power had the most significant effect on the oil recovery (p < 0.001), followed by irradiation time (p < 0.01). The major volatile constituents in the oil obtained under the optimal conditions were sabinene, terpinen-4-ol, and (E)-1-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl) butadiene with a higher amount of the oxygenated compounds compared to those isolated by a conventional hydrodistillation (HD). Isolating the essential oil by SFME showed a complete extraction with higher plant cell rupture and was quicker than HD.

The aim of this work was to optimize the distillation conditions for extracting cinnamomum cassia oil from cinnamomum cassia bark by steam distillation. The orthogonal test was conducted to investigate the effects of the three main factors on cinnamomum cassia oil yield, including the solid-liquid ratio, the distillation time and the fragmentation degree of cinnamomum cassia bark. The investigation results show that the influence of the distillation conditions on extraction performance follows the sequence: fragmentation degree of cinnamomum cassia bark, the solid-liquid ratio and distillation time. And the optimum conditions are the fragmentation degree of 40 mesh, the ratio of material to liquid of 1/10 and the distillation time of 2 h. At the optimum distillation conditions, the cinnamomum cassia oil yield is about1.44%, and the extracted cinnamomum cassia oil has good quality with gold yellow color and prominent cinnamon scent.
