Abstract:Herein an enzyme‐assisted supercritical fluid extraction (EA‐SFE) was developed using the enzyme mix snailase to obtain flavonols and dihydrochalcones, subgroups of flavonoids, from globally abundant waste product apple pomace. Snailase, a commercially available mix of 20—30 enzymes, was successfully used to remove the sugar moieties from quercetin glycosides, kaempferol glycosides, phloridzin and 3‐hydroxyphloridzin. The resulting flavonoid aglycones quercetin, kaempferol, phloretin and 3‐hydroxyphloretin wer… Show more
