Optimisation Catechin Extract on Black Tea Waste (BTW) using Microwave Assisted Extraction (MAE) (Time Extraction and Ethanol Concentration as Parameters)
Baiq Amarwati Tartillah
Abstract:Remaining catechins from Black Tea processing can be found in significant amounts in tea waste. When using a 60% methanol organic solvent in the Microwave Assisted Extraction (MAE) method, as opposed to other methods, the extraction of black tea waste (BTW) results in a high polyphenol concentration. With a focus on yield extraction, antioxidant content, and catechin levels, the goal of this study is to identify the ideal alcohol solvent concentration and the impact of microwave heating duration on the extract… Show more
