Extraction of Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graceum L.) Seed Oil Using Subcritical Butane: Characterization and Process Optimization

Abstract: In this study, the subcritical butane extraction process of fenugreek seed oil was optimized using response surface methodology with a Box-Behnken design. The optimum conditions for extracted oil from fenugreek seed was as follows: extraction temperature of 43.24 °C, extraction time of 32.80 min, and particle size of 0.26 mm. No significant differences were found between the experimental and predicted values. The physical and chemical properties of the oil showed that the oil could be used as edible oil. Fatty… Show more

“…This can be due to increased specific surface area with smaller particles and accessibility of disrupted cells on the particle surface [27]. In addition, the smaller the particle size, the shorter the mass transfer distance of oil in soybean particle interior, and this decreases the internal mass transfer resistance of oil and does help to increase the extraction efficiency [17,26].…”

“…Now, eager attentions have been threw into these two burgeoning techniques due to that they are feasible means especially for food and pharmaceutical industries. They are cheap, efficiency, harmfulless, environmentally friendly, and no solvent traces remain in the extracted oil products as solvent (CO 2 , butane, or propane) can be easily removed from the product by depressurization . Besides, the oils obtained by supercritical and subcritical extractions are of outstanding quality and the extraction yields are comparable with those conventional methods …”

“…Oleic acid is an important monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) which exerts important effect on the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases (Gu, Liu‐X, Liu‐H, Pang, & Qin, ). Next in much were linoleic acid (C18:2; 19.22%–19.66%) and linolenic acid (C18:3; 7.81%–8.00%), which were essential 18‐carbon unsaturated fatty acid (UFA).…”
