Kinetic properties on supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of charantin from Momordica charantia L. with co-extractant
Charantin is a bioactive compound in bitter gourd (Momordica charantia) fruit that has been claimed to be able to lower blood glucose level in type 2 diabetes mellitus patient. Its unique dual polarity compound and larger molecular weight makes it difficult to be extracted using conventional extract...

Charantin is a bioactive compound in bitter gourd (Momordica charantia) fruit that has been claimed to be able to lower blood glucose level in type 2 diabetes mellitus patient. Its unique dual polarity compound and larger molecular weight makes it difficult to be extracted using conventional extraction method such as Soxhlet and water extraction. The aim of this study is to extract charantin from Momordica charantia using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) in the presence of absolute ethanol as co-extractant (1:3 w/v feed-to-solvent ratio). As mean particle size influences the extraction yield, its effects were investigated in the range of 0.2-0.7 mm and validated using the extraction curve model. The optimum extraction pressure and temperature ranging from 10-30 MPa and 45-65 oC respectively were determined using response surface methodology with 3-level factorial while the effect of SC-CO2 operating conditions and kinetic properties on the extraction yield were validated using the kinetic models of Barton, Crank, simplified linear driving force (SLDF) and Sovová. Results demonstrated that the extraction efficiency of charantin was found to be 13.25 x 10-3 mg ch/g CO2 with the highest concentration of charantin of 112.56 mg/100 g dry weight at optimum condition of 0.3 mm particle size, 30 MPa pressure, 65 oC temperature and 5 mL/min flowrate.
