Supercritical CO2 extraction of pigment components with pharmaceutical importance from Chlorella vulgaris

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Chlorella vulgaris is a green microalgae that contains various pigment components of carotenoids and chlorophylls. Supercritical CO 2 is widely used for extraction of pharmaceutical compounds because it is non-oxic and easily separated from extracted material by simply depressurizing. In this work, pharmaceutical compounds from Chlorella vulgaris have been extracted using supercritical CO 2 with or without entrainer at various extraction conditions.

“…Generally, the yield of extract influenced by the increase of pressure or temperature at constant temperature or pressure when SCCO2 was applied as an extraction medium. This phenomena occurred due to direct change of density and hence solubility of SCCO2 [22,23]. In this work, it should be noted that the lipid extraction by SCCO2 was performed at pressure of 40 MPa with various extraction temperatures.…”

“…In the present work, supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2) was employed as a solvent extraction [10][11][12][13][14] to extract phenolic compounds from grains of paradise seeds. The SCCO2 extraction technique is very advantageous and environmentally friendly compared with other conventional extraction technique, such as soxhlet extraction technique.…”

“…It is very commonly found in both fresh water and saline water. C. vulgaris has high photosynthetic efficiency as well as high biomass productivity and is strongly resistant against harsh conditions and invaders, which make it ideal as a source of proteins, enzyme, lipids, carbohydrates, pigments, vitamins and minerals [3][4][5][6][7]. To break the hard cell wall and release the internal components of C. vulgaris, multiple cell disruption techniques have been employed, the most frequently used techniques include high pressure homogenization, autoclaving, enzymatic lysis, bead milling, grinding, etc.…”
