A Technological Research on Synergetic Extraction of Momordica charantia L. Saponin Using Microwave-Surfactant

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, microwave-surfactant assisted extraction of saponin from Momordica Charantia.L was studied. The content of saponin was determined by the method of vanillin-acetic acid and perchloric which were used as developer. Four main factors including extraction powder, extraction time, ratio of solid to liquid and surfactant concentration were studied by orthogonal experiments. Results showed that extraction powder was the most significant influential factor, followed by extraction time and ratio of solid to liquid. Surfactant concentration showed the minimum influence. The optimum extraction conditions were: extraction powder 400W, extraction time 5min, ratio of solid to liquid 1:12g/mL and surfactant concentration 0.03mol/L, under which the extraction yield of saponin reached 4.69%.
