EXTRACTION OF EPICUTICULAR WAX AND NONACOSAN-10-OL FROM EPHEDRA HERB UTILIZING SUPERCRITICAL CARBON DIOXIDE
Experimental results concerning the processing feasibility of using supercritical CO2 were reported for the extraction of epicuticular wax from Ephedra herb. Subsequently the isolability of nonacosan-10-ol from the total extract of epicuticular wax was evaluated by TLC and gas chromatography. Also, Soxhlet extractions of Ephedra herb by n-hexane and chloroform were performed and these results were compared with those obtained by supercritical CO2 extraction. As a result, we could demonstrate that supercritical CO2 can be an economical alternative to the organic solvents in processing the medicinal plant.
