An improvised process of isolation, purification of steviosides from Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni leaves and its biological activity

Abstract: The food industry has traditionally used sugar (sucrose) as a sweetening agent; however the dietary and health demands are continuing to expand the market for sweeteners as an alternative to sucrose. The leaves of Stevia rebaudiana are rich source of glycosides that have sweet taste with low calorific value. The study highlights extraction of steviosides from leaves using pressurised hot water extractor, followed by purification and concentration of the sweet glycosides through ultra (UF) and nano (NF) filtrat… Show more

“…Methanol extract showed two zones on TLC plates. The methanol extract on complete non-polar compounds and greasy materials from the Stevia leaf extract, as the solvent is non-polar in nature and sweet compounds thus retained behind in the residue were partitioned into butanol from water [28,[36][37][38] . Butanol and water are immiscible solvents therefore used advantageously to remove the impurities from the residue, leaving behind the sweet compounds in the butanol layer [39,40] .…”

“…Among the most well-known alternatives to sucrose are steviolglycosides (steviosides) [69], which are diterpene glycosides obtained from the leaves of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni (family Asteraceae). These compounds are around 300 times sweeter than sucrose [70]. The sweetening properties of the steviol-glycosides differ from one another in sweetness and quality of the taste, so the organoleptic properties of the steviosides depend a lot on the extraction technique used to extract them from stevia leaves [70].…”

“…These methods were optimized in terms of temperature, duration of the process, stability and quantity of molecules extracted, whereas the conventional methods of extraction (Soxhlet extraction, hot or cold maceration, and hydro distillation) were less desirable from both an economic and an extractive standpoint (Table 1) [31][32][33]. Table 1.…”
