“…Key advantages of PHWE include the operational simplicity, the accessibility and low cost of instrumentation, rapid extraction times enabling high sampling throughput, and the preparation of extracts in which the presence of intractable plant pigments is minimised. The above-mentioned features suggest that PHWE can usefully contribute to facilitating natural products isolation chemistry, phytochemical analysis, and, beyond this, better enabling chemotaxonomic surveys, [33,45] bioprospecting, [38] and bioactivity-guided extraction. [52] Furthermore, the affordable, innately practical, and simple nature of many of these water- based extraction strategies should contribute to the wider application and uptake of this methodology in the future.…”
