RSM based optimized enzyme-assisted extraction of antioxidant phenolics from underutilized watermelon (Citrullus lanatus Thunb.) rind

Abstract: Enzyme assisted solvent extraction (EASE) of phenolic compounds from watermelon (C. lanatus) rind (WMR) was optimized using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) with Rotatable Central Composite Design (RCCD). Four variables each at five levels i.e. enzyme concentration (EC) 0.5-6.5 %, pH 6-9, temperature (T) 25-75 °C and treatment time (t) 30-90 min, were augmented to get optimal yield of polyphenols with maximum retained antioxidant potential. The polyphenol extracts obtained under optimum conditions were evalu… Show more

“…The results were in coordination with antimicrobial effect of WMRE as indicated by zone of inhibition in the present study. Haggag et al (2011) and Mushtaq et al (2015) also attributed antibacterial activity of WMRE to high phenolic compounds (110.85 ± 8.85 mg GAE/g of freshWRM extracts).…”

“…The rind is mostly underutilized as feed or fertilizers. As per an estimate by Mushtaq et al (), more than 90% of watermelon rind is still not utilized and dumped into environment. This rind making up about 30%–33% of total weight of watermelon, poses a serious concern for solid waste disposal in agro‐industry.…”

“…The enzyme-based extraction of bioactive compounds from plants is a potential alternative to conventional solvent-based extraction methods (Puri et al, 2012), for example, the RSM based optimized enzyme-assisted extraction of antioxidant phenolics from underutilized watermelon (Citrullus lanatus Thunb.) (Mushtaq et al, 2015). Enzyme-assisted extraction has the advantage of being a green alternative to Braz.…”

“…In order to improve the extraction efficiency, several extraction methods such as ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) [14], microwave-assisted extraction [15], enzyme-assisted extraction [16], and pressurized fluid extraction [17] have been developed to extract antioxidants from natural products. UAE is a green extraction technique due to its advantages over conventional methods, such as the higher extraction efficiency, the shorter extraction time and the lower solvent consumption [18,19,20].…”
