Alternative methods in the successful extraction of herbal medicinal from stem plants are typically listed. Like 1. Maceration, 2. Infusion, 3. Digestion, 4. Decoction, 5. Percolation, 6. Soxhlet extraction, 7. Microwave-assisted extraction, 8. Ultrasound-assisted extraction. Your specific answers and practical suggestions are helpful to me, so regards your practical experiences: 1. Which technical method gives a high yield? 2. Also, which method gives significant quality and quantity products?
Dear Bejena
Thank you for your question
Normally yield depends on their medicinal plants and their internal compound classes. I agree with professor Hussain but my first choice is ultrasound or ultrasonic extraction.
Thank you
Because of high extraction yields, selectivity, stability of the target extracts and process safety merits Microwave-assisted extraction and Ultrasound-assisted extraction are better than others.
I prefer maceration method; Because in this method, all plant compounds are extracted with the least change and damage.
