Hi!

The essential oils can be separated from the raw material using appropiate solvent.

First of all we can select best solvent by TLC method.

After that the effective extraction could be done in 3 steps.

The amount of solvent is reduced in each step.

The 1,2 and 3 wash provide 60%,30% and remaining compounds.

Good Luck.

Good Morning

I am agree with the answer.

The raw material should be coarsely crushed,not to be fine grinded.

The wash/extract should be checked regularly with TLC method for extent of extraction.

Thanks
