I am currently extracting crude lipids in musa(banana) via soxhlet extraction using petroleum ether. I wanted to know if anyone had better yield via the acid hydrolysis method.
Sohxlet extraction by hexan or petroleum ether
Acid hydrolysis.
For crude lipid/fat, Sohxlet would be better choice. Whereas, use a combination of organic solvents for the estimation of total lipids.
dear community, my model is based feature extraction from non stationary signals using discrete Wavelet Transform and then using statistical features then machine learning classifiers in order to...
