so anybody have any idia how to convert this non solid material to solid constituents ,i mean if any gentleman done this work for any plants can explain it how to separate this extracted to solid parts ,thanks for your answer
You will always get semi-solid extract. Physical characteristics of an extract depends on group of compounds present in the extract i.e. If saponins are present than you will always get gummy type semi-solid. Simple way to get solid particle is after removing solvent, dry the extract on anhydrous calcium chloride in a vaccum desiccator.
However, some worker processes the extract with starch or sugars prior to evaporation of solvent to get free flowing particles.
Dear, getting semisolid or dry extract depends on the physical characterization of your extract, and also the duration of incubation (drying) + using temperature. TQ
