Two different isolation techniques, microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (MAHD) and conventional hydrodistillation (HD), were used to extract the volatile constituents from the leaves and stems of Schefflera heptaphylla (L.) Frodin harvested during four different seasons, which were subsequently analyzed via gas chromatography with flame ionization detection and gas chromatography with mass spectrometry. MAHD is more advantageous than HD in terms of energy savings and extraction time (60 min vs. 180 min for MAHD vs. HD). Large variations in the composition among the different oils were observed. The seasonal changes in the percentages of the main constituents of the oils were irregular; this affected the quantity and composition of the oil. Oil yield was affected by the method of extraction and seasonal changes. It ranged from 0.11% to 0.27%, with the maximum amount of oil extracted from the leaves using MAHD in winter and the minimum from the stem oil extraction using HD in spring. The essential oil content varied significantly with the season. Sesquiterpene hydrocarbons constituted the major portion of the essential oils. Sesquiterpene hydrocarbons were highest in the leaf oil extraction by HD during winter (88.6%) and lowest in the stem oil extraction by HD during spring (56.3%). Microwave irradiation did not adversely affect the composition of the essential oils. MAHD, indeed, is a modern, green, and fast technology.  相似文献

An ionic liquid (IL)-water mixture employed to treat lignocellulosic biomass is promising. The addition of water decreases viscosity and process cost so as to improve the IL practical application. In this work, effects of temperature (50-170 °C), water content (0-80 wt%), treating duration (0.5-4 h) and pressure (0.1-3.2 MPa) on treating legume straw process using a 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C4mim]Cl)-water mixture were experimentally investigated. Legume straw was found to be partially dissolved, and the dissolved substances can be flocculated by adding the coagulating agent—water (equal to volume of the solution). For this process at 0.1 MPa, the maximum 29.1 wt% legume straw is dissolved in the [C4mim]Cl-water mixture with water content of 20 wt% at 150 °C during 2 h, which is much higher than 9.8 wt% using pure [C4mim]Cl. A hemicellulose-free lignin-rich material (64.0 wt% lignin and 35.3 wt% cellulose) is obtained by adding the water. Even for 0.5 h, 22.3 wt% of legume straw is dissolved in the case of water content of 20 wt%, 150 °C and 0.1 MPa. High pressure favors the dissolution of legume straw but lignin content in the residue has no obvious change. The addition of proper amount of water facilitates the dissolution of legume straw and a relative rapid dissolving rate can be achieved in a [C4mim]Cl-water mixture. There are great differences in chemical and physical properties between legume straw and the obtained samples (residue and floc) due to the dissolution and reconstitution.  相似文献

The full whole culture (FWC), containing parasporal protein toxins of Bacillus thuringiensis israelinsis (Bti) and Bacillus sphaericus 2362 (Bs), either singly or in combination with plant oils and commercial insecticides, was tested against larval and adult stages of Culex pipiens mosquitoes under controlled laboratory conditions. In terms of LC50 values recorded after 24, 48, 72 and 96 h, the bacterial toxins showed high potency towards both larvae and adults of mosquitoes in a dose-dependent manner. Generally, the Bti toxin seemed to be more potent than the Bs toxin. For example, the Bti toxin showed a 24 h LC50 of 8.2 ppm against mosquito larvae compared to 13.6 ppm for the Bs toxin. In the adult bioassay, the obtained 24 h LC50 values were 0.064 and 0.085 mg/cm2, respectively for the two bacterial toxins. The bacterial toxins mixed with plant oils or insecticides at equitoxic doses (e.g., LC25 values) mostly showed potentiation effects, either against larvae or adults of the tested insect. Among a total of 14 paired mixtures, only the joint action estimated for the mixture of malathion + Bti or Bs was accounted as additively. Combining Bti or Bs endotoxins at LC0 with different plant oils and insecticides at LC50 concentration levels each, has resulted in considerable synergism against either larvae or adults. In the case of larval bioassays, the maximum synergistic factor (SF) obtained (ca. 2.0) was entitled to the mixture of Bti + spinosad. In the adult bioassays, the mixtures containing Curcuma longa or Melia azedarach oil extracts with Bti or Bs toxins achieved a SF accounted to 2.0. The results of the present study may be considered as an additional contribution to the area of joint toxicity of biocidal agents combining bacterial toxins, plant oils and traditional insecticides. The reached findings may encourage future research to elucidate its performance under practical field conditions.  相似文献

This work evaluates the use of sugarcane bagasse (SCB) as a source of cellulose to obtain whiskers. These fibers were extracted after SCB underwent alkaline peroxide pre-treatment followed by acid hydrolysis at 45 °C. The influence of extraction time (30 and 75 min) on the properties of the nanofibers was investigated. Sugarcane bagasse whiskers (SCBW) were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in air atmosphere. The results showed that SCB could be used as source to obtain cellulose whiskers and they had needle-like structures with an average length (L) of 255 ± 55 nm and diameter (D) of 4 ± 2 nm, giving an aspect ratio (L/D) around 64. More drastic hydrolysis conditions (75 min) resulted in less thermally stable whiskers and caused some damage on the crystal structure of the cellulose as observed by XRD analysis.  相似文献

The fatty acid composition, Acid Value, and the content and composition of tocopherols, tocotrienols, carotenoids, phytosterols, and steryl ferulates were determined in corn germ oil and four post-fermentation corn oils from the ethanol dry grind process. The oxidative stability index at 110 °C was determined for the five oils, and four oils were compared for their stability during storage at 40 °C as determined by peroxide value and hexanal content. The fatty acid composition of all five oils was typical for corn oil. The Acid Value (and percentage of free fatty acids) was highest (28.3 mg KOH/g oil) in corn oil extracted centrifugally from a conventional dry grind ethanol processing facility and for oil extracted, using hexane, from distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) from a raw starch ethanol processing facility (20.8 mg KOH/g oil). Acid Value was lowest in two oils extracted centrifugally from thin stillage in a raw starch ethanol facility (5.7 and 6.9 mg KOH/g oil). Tocopherols were highest in corn germ oil (∼1400 μg/g), but tocotrienols, phytosterols, steryl ferulates, and carotenoids were higher in all of the post-fermentation corn oils. Hexane extracted oil from DDGS was the most oxidatively stable as evaluated by OSI and storage test at 40 °C, followed by centrifugally extracted thin stillage oil from the raw starch ethanol process, and centrifugally extracted thin stillage oil from the conventional dry grind ethanol process. Corn germ oil was the least oxidatively stable. When stored at room temperature, the peroxide value of centrifugally extracted thin stillage oil from the raw starch ethanol process did not significantly increase until after six weeks of storage, and was less than 2.0 mequiv. peroxide/kg oil after three months of storage. These results indicate that post-fermentation corn oils have higher content of valuable functional lipids than corn germ oil. Some of these functional lipids have antioxidant activity which increases the oxidative stability of the post-fermentation oils.  相似文献

Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) was employed to extract oil from hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) seeds. For ground seeds, the supercritical extraction was carried out at temperatures of 40, 60 and 80 °C and pressures of 300 and 400 bar. Different solvent-ratios were applied. Supercritical CO2 extractions were compared with a conventional technique, n-hexane in Soxhlet. The extraction yields, fatty acid composition of the oil and oxidation stability were determined. The seed samples used in this work contained 81% PUFAs, of which 59.6% was linoleic acid (ω-6), 3.4% γ-linolenic (ω-3), and 18% α-linolenic (ω-6). The highest oil yield from seeds was 22%, corresponding to 72% recovery, at 300 bar and 40 °C and at 400 bar and 80 °C. The highest oxidation stability corresponding to 2.16 mM Eq Vit E was obtained at 300 bar and 80 °C.  相似文献

In order to further exploit the by-products of Isatis indigotica Fort., the seed oil was studied for its extraction and physicochemical properties. Ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) was used, and the parameters affecting seed oil recovery were optimized through response surface methodology (RSM). The optimum conditions were as follows: solvent-to-sample, 24:1; particle size, 110 meshes; extraction temperature, 49 °C; and extraction time, 44 min. Which resulted in a maximum oil recovery of 81.20 ± 0.21% (n = 3). Furthermore, the effects of UAE on the yield, fatty acid compositions, physicochemical properties, and microstructure of the seed powder were also investigated by calculating the recovery rate, utilizing a gas chromatograph fitted with a mass spectrometer (GC-MS), and performing scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The results show that UAE was an effective method for the seed oil extraction and the high content of unsaturated fatty acids (93.81%) demonstrates the oil has potential benefits for the cosmetics, edible products, or pharmaceutical industries.  相似文献

A new series of petroselinic (Coriandrum sativum L.) based estolide 2-ethylhexyl (2-EH) esters were synthesized, as the capping material varied in length and in degrees of unsaturation, in a perchloric acid catalyzed one-pot process with the esterification process incorporated into an in situ second step to provide the coriander estolide 2-EH ester. The kinematic viscosities ranged from 53 to 75 cSt at 40 °C and 9.1 to 14.6 cSt at 100 °C with a viscosity index (VI) ranging from 151 to 165. The caprylic (C8) capped coriander estolide 2-EH ester had the lowest low-temperature properties (pour point = −33 °C and cloud point = −33 °C), while the coco-coriander estolide 2-EH ester produced an estolide with modest low-temperature properties (pour point = −24 °C and cloud point = −25 °C). The coco-coriander estolide 2-EH ester was explored for the ability to resist oxidative degradation with the use of an biodegradable additive package added in 1.5%, 3.5%, or 7.0% units based on weight. The oxidative stability increased as the amount of stability package increased (rotating pressurized vessel oxidation test (RPVOT) times 65-273 min). Along with expected good biodegradability, these coriander estolide 2-EH esters had acceptable properties that should provide a specialty niche in the U.S. as a biobased lubricant.  相似文献

The chestnut bur, a forest waste product from chestnut processing in the food industry, was studied as a potential source of natural antioxidants. Extractions were performed using aqueous solutions of methanol or ethanol. Experiments were planned according to an incomplete 33 factorial design to study the influence of temperature (25-75 °C), time (30-120 min) and solvent concentration (50-90%) on extraction yield and on extract properties: total phenols content, antioxidant activity (using the FRAP, DPPH and ABTS methods) and average molecular weights. All dependent variables were influenced by temperature and solvent concentration whereas the influence of time was almost negligible. Using the response surface methodology the optimal extraction conditions were selected: the highest temperature assayed (75 °C), the lowest solvent concentration (50%) and an extraction time of 75 min for the methanolic extractions and of 30 min for the ethanolic ones. Under those conditions the values predicted for extraction yield and total phenols content were 18.95% and 36.32 g GAE/100 g extract for the methanolic extract and 17.95% and 26.11 g GAE/100 g extract for the ethanolic ones. Methanolic extracts showed superior total phenols content and antioxidant properties and slightly higher extraction yields than ethanolic extracts; however, ethanol is recommended for food applications due to its GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) qualification. Gallic acid esters of glucose, ellagic acid and small proportions of quercetin-3-β-d-glucoside, phenolic compounds with demonstrated antioxidant properties, were identified in chestnut bur extracts by RP-HPLC-ESI-TOF.  相似文献

In this study, Nigella sativa L. oil was extracted using supercritical carbon dioxide with full factorial design to determine the best extraction condition (pressure, temperature and dynamic extraction time) for obtaining an extract with high yield, antioxidant activity and thymoquinone (TQ) quantity. The maximum thymoquinone content in the highest overall yield was achieved through SC-CO2 extraction condition of 150 bar, 40 °C, 120 min with the value of 4.09 mg/ml. The highest SC-CO2 extraction yield was 23.20% which obtained through extraction condition of 350 bar, 60 °C and 120 min. The extraction conducted at 350 bar, 50 °C, 60 min showed the lowest IC50 value (highest antioxidant activity) of 2.59 mg/ml using DPPH radical scavenging activity method. Fatty acid composition of the extracted oil with highest radical scavenging activity was obtained by gas chromatographic analysis.  相似文献

Field and laboratory experiments were conducted to evaluate the productivity and essential oil composition of lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.) and hyssop (Hyssopus officinalis L.) as functions of year, harvest time, and drying. Lavender essential oil content ranged from 0.71 to 1.3% (overall average of 0.89%) and hyssop oil content ranged from 0.13 to 0.26% (overall average of 0.19%). Lavender and hyssop essential oil yields increased with time. Hyssop oil yields varied from 7.3 kg ha−1 to 19.6 kg ha−1, and lavender oil yields varied from 7.8 kg ha−1 to 55.5 kg ha−1. The major constituents of lavender oil were linalool (23.3-43.4%) and linalylacetate (20.2-39.6%), while the major constituents of hyssop oil were pinocamphene + isopinocamphene (57-75%) and β-pinene (5-15%). Lavender oil extracted from dry material had higher concentrations of linalyl acetate and caryophyllene but lower concentrations of myrcene than the oil from the fresh material. Delayed harvest of hyssop increased the concentrations of β-pinene, myrcene, and limonene + cineole but reduced pinocamphone + isopinocamphone. The chemical composition of the lavender and hyssop oil produced in Mississippi was similar to commercial oils from Bulgaria, Canada, France, and US. Lavender and hyssop can be established as essential oil crops in areas of the southeastern United States. Lavender and hyssop essential oils did not show significant antimicrobial, antileishmanial, antimalarial activity, and did not alter ruminal fermentation. However, commercial oil from L. latifolia reduced methane production in an in vitro digestibility study. The antioxidant activity of hyssop essential oil was 2039 μmol of TE L−1, whereas the antioxidant activity of lavender essential oil was 328 μmol of TE L−1.  相似文献

Autocatalytic hydrothermal process conditions were used to study Ulex europæus (Gorse) as a source of xylan compounds. The aim was to study the possibilities for using this unutilised biomass material to produce xylans. Ulex is an evergreen shrub that grows in the northwest of Spain and has no economic value. Therefore, Ulex is considered a promising candidate as a biomass source. Ulex showed a total xylose content of 12%, thus qualifying it as a suitable material to extract xylan-derived compounds. Autohydrolysis was applied to extract xylans from Ulex. To find the best conditions for xylan extraction, samples of Ulex were subjected to different temperatures and time conditions. Results indicate that autohydrolysis is a suitable method to selectively extract xylans at temperatures between 160 and 190 °C for 5-30 min, reaching a maximum xylan recovery of almost 63% of the initial xylan at 180 °C for 30 min, with only small effects on cellulose and lignin contents.  相似文献

The influence of processing conditions (thermoforming temperature) on water vapour transport properties (permeability, sorption and diffusion) of wheat gluten-based films was studied in relation to structural properties (cross-linking degree of the wheat gluten matrix). Increasing temperature from 80 °C to 120 °C led to a significant decrease in material swelling in high moisture environment and a WVP reduction mainly due to a decrease in diffusivity but without important effect on the moisture sorption isotherms. This was attributed to a higher cross-linking degree of protein network for film thermoformed at 120 °C, with a limited mobility and less possibilities of rearrangement in high moisture conditions.  相似文献

The essential oils from 9 aromatic plants were tested on repellency and mortality of Meligethes aeneus adults. All the tested essential oils caused high mortality of M. aeneus adults in the tarsal tests. The lethal doses after 6 h exposure were ranged between 197 and 1508 μg cm−2. Essential oils obtained from Carum carvi and Thymus vulgaris were most efficient where LD50 was estimated as 197 and 250 μg cm−2, respectively.Repellency declined in all the essential oils as a function of time. The longest persistence time was determined for essences obtained from C. carvi and T. vulgaris where significantly the highest repellent index of 65.6% and 63.8%, respectively, was determined. Repellent index lower than 15% was determined for the remaining essential oils.  相似文献

The extraction of condensed tannins from grape pomace was examined using a mixture water-sodium hydroxide at 120 °C. The extracts were characterized by solution 13C NMR and have showed characteristic consistent with that of condensed tannins with dominant procyanidin units. The tannin fractions reactivity toward formaldehyde was studied by gel time analysis and thermomechanical analysis in bending. It has been demonstrated that the extracts obtained by using 10% of NaOH (w/w) displayed promising properties for adhesive applications.  相似文献

Ricinus communis seed is a source of protein and oil with a high potential to use as animal's feedstock and biodiesel production. However, the oil yield and the extraction efficiency depend on the process conditions applied, as well as on the physical, chemical and structural properties of the seed, which have not been fully investigated. Hence, the objective of this study was to evaluate some chemical and physical properties of R. communis seed as well as to describe and quantify the macro and microstructure of this raw material by microscopy techniques and image analysis. Chemical analysis confirmed the seeds’ high contents of protein (28.48 ± 0.25%) and fat (51 ± 0.31%). On the other hand, the values of geometric mean diameter (8.95 ± 0.05 mm), bulk density (538 ± 11 kg/m3), and true density (1458 ± 27 kg/m3), among others, were higher than the ones reported about similar oils seeds. Microstructural studies showed that the endosperm cells presented an ovoid shape, as obtained from the aspect ratio results (AR = 1.28 ± 0.17), and a cell density of 570 ± 10 cell/mm2, resulting in a porous structure, while the embryo cells had a cell density of 4903 ± 2 cell/mm2, and an AR of 2.41 ± 0.48, related to a more compact structure (rectangular form) in this part of the seed. Regarding to lipids bodies (lb), they were only visible in the endosperm cells, showing a circular shape (AR = 1.16 ± 0.1), and a mean cell density of 9.57 ± 2.40 lipid bodies/μm2, associated to protein as observed by the mineral presence (K, P, Mg and S) as determined by the energy dispersive X-ray analysis. Microscopy techniques and images analysis were efficient tools for the characterization of macro and microstructure of seeds and the data obtained integrate numerical information that could be useful for thermal and mechanical processing of R. communis seed, as well as for the design process equipment.  相似文献

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of autohydrolysis temperature of corn residues in the antioxidant activity of the phenolic compounds extracted from the liquid phase. The treatments were carried out at 160, 180, 190 and 200 °C for 30 min in a pressurized batch reactor. Two different methods for phenolic compounds extraction from the autohydrolysis liquors were investigated. For that purpose, solvent extraction with ethyl acetate and acidic precipitation were performed for phenolic compounds recovery. These methods have been compared in terms of extraction yield, physicochemical properties of obtained polyphenols (characterization by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, Thermogravimetric Analysis and Gel Permeation Chromatography), total phenolic content, total antioxidant capacity and Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) values, measured in DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) test system. The maximum phenolic contents ranged from 6.04 mg GAE/100 mg extract in acidic precipitated samples to 16.45 mg GAE/100 mg extract in ethyl acetate soluble fractions. The results indicated that the ethyl acetate fractions possessed the highest antioxidant activity, reaching after 30-60 min the same capacity reported for the reference synthetic antioxidants (Trolox).  相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of the fibrous material obtained from ethanol-water fractionation of bagasse as reinforcement of thermoplastic starches in order to improve their mechanical properties. The composites were elaborated using matrices of corn and cassava starches plasticized with 30 wt% glycerin. The mixtures (0, 5, 10 and 15 wt% bagasse fiber) were elaborated in a rheometer at 150 °C. The mixtures obtained were pressed on a hot plate press at 155 °C. The test specimens were obtained according to ASTM D638. Tensile tests, moisture absorption tests for 24 days (20-23 °C and 53% RH, ASTM E104), and dynamic-mechanical analyses (DMA) in tensile mode were carried out. Images by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction were obtained. Fibers (10 wt% bagasse fiber) increased tensile strength by 44% and 47% compared to corn and cassava starches, respectively. The reinforcement (15 wt% bagasse fiber) increased more than fourfold the elastic modulus on starch matrices. The storage modulus at 30 °C (E30 °C′) increased as the bagasse fiber content increased, following the trend of tensile elastic modulus. The results indicate that these fibers have potential applications in the development of biodegradable composite materials.  相似文献

The ability of activated carbon to remove pollutants from water in packed column systems is dependent on granular material with mechanical strength sufficient to avoid attrition caused by stream flow. Therefore, an appropriate balance between surface area and hardness is essential when using activated carbon in real systems. The purpose of this research is to determine the optimal production conditions that generate activated carbon with adequate physical properties to be used in packed systems from agave bagasse, a waste product from the mezcal industries in Mexico. Activated carbons were produced by chemical activation (ZnCl2 or H3PO4). Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to evaluate the effect of the activation temperature (250-550 °C), activation time (0-50 min), and the concentration of activating agent (0.2-1.4; g activating agent/g bagasse) on both surface area and hardness. The production conditions that generated optimal characteristics in the activated carbon were 392 °C, 1.02 g activating agent/g bagasse and 23.8 min for H3PO4 activated samples and 456 °C, 1.08 g activating agent/g bagasse and 23.8 min for ZnCl2 activated samples. The surface area and hardness of the activated carbon produced from bagasse under these conditions were similar to activated commercial carbons (surface area > 800 m2/g and hardness > 85%).  相似文献

Cuphea spp. have seeds that contain high levels of medium chain fatty acids and have the potential to be commercially cultivated. In the course of processing and refining cuphea oil a number of byproducts are generated. Developing commercial uses for these byproducts would improve the economics of growing cuphea. Oil fractions and byproducts were obtained from processed seeds of cuphea germplasm line PSR 23 (Cuphea viscosissima × Cuphea lanceolata). We investigated the employment of oil byproducts as growth regulators and solid residues as organic soil amendments on Calabrese broccoli (Brassica oleracea L, family Brassicaceae) seedling growth. Seed processing solid residue fractions, included presscake, bin trash, stem trash and seed trash. These fractions were ground and mixed into soil to obtain concentrations of 0, 0.5, 1, 3, and 10% (w/w). Ground presscake and bin trash could be employed as an organic soil amendment up to 1% without detrimental effects on broccoli. Ground seed meal (seed trash) was detrimental to seedling growth at all concentrations tested. Stem trash employed at 1% caused fresh and dry weights to increase 26.8 and 29.8%, respectively, compared to untreated broccoli seedlings. Stem trash could be employed up to 10% without a detrimental effect on broccoli seedlings. Solvent extraction to remove residual oils from residue fractions was also conducted to generate improved soil amendments. Generally, solvent extraction of seed-processing residue fractions improved the broccoli seedling growth responses. Administration of processed oils and their byproduct fractions as foliar sprays on broccoli seedlings was conducted at rates of 0, 10, 30, and 50 g L−1. Plants were evaluated 72 h after spraying. Refined and crude oils had no effect on broccoli seedlings; gums and soapstock sprays had no effect at 10 or 30 g L−1 concentrations but at 50 g L−1 it killed seedlings. Distilled fatty acid fraction sprays killed broccoli seedlings at all tested concentrations. Certain oil byproduct fractions from cuphea oil processing can be employed as “environmentally-friendly” herbicidal sprays. Calorific evaluation of cuphea ag-wastes were conducted and found to compare well to other biomass energy sources.  相似文献
