Efficiency of Supercritical CO2 and Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction Techniques for Isolation of Bioactive Molecules from Sea Buckthorn (Elaeagnus rhamnoides (L.) A. Nelson) Berry Oils and Cakes
PROCESSES(2024)
Abstract
This study compared the efficiency of advanced supercritical CO2 extraction (SC-CO2) and conventional Soxhlet extraction (SE) in the isolation of lipophilic bioactive molecules (BAMs) from the oils of different sea buckthorn (SB) berries (Leikora and Ascola). A SB cake, a valuable by-product of oil extraction, was analyzed for phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity (AA). For this purpose, ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) with 70% (v/v) ethanol was optimized, and the following optimal UAE conditions were determined: ultrasonic power of 60%, temperature of 50 degrees C, and extraction time of 20 min. The individual BAMs in the oils and cake extracts were analyzed chromatographically, while the AAs were determined using the ORAC method. The oils extracted with SC-CO2 had a higher content of lipophilic BAMs and a higher AA value than the oils extracted with SE. Palmitic and palmitoleic acids, beta-sitosterol, and alpha-tocopherol dominated the Leikora oil, while a higher content of oleic, linoleic, and alpha-linolenic acids and carotenoids was found in the Ascola oil. The highest phenolic content was found in the Ascola cake, with the flavonols isorhamnetin-3-hexoside, isorhamnetin-3-rutinoside, and quercetin-3-glucoside being the most abundant. Oil and cake extracts of the Ascola variety also had a higher AA.
