Optimization and comparison of heat and ultrasound assisted extraction techniques to obtain anthocyanin compounds from Arbutus unedo L. Fruits
Open accessAbstract
The goal of this study was to compare anthocyanin extraction from Arbutus unedo L. fruits, by using two techniques assisted by different energy sources, heat and ultrasound. In order to obtain the conditions that maximize anthocyanin extraction, a response surface methodology was applied using the circumscribed central composite design of three variables with five levels. Three anthocyanin compounds were identified by HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS, being cyanidin-3-glucoside the main molecule. Heat assisted extraction proved to be the most effective method at 5 min, 90 °C and 80% of ethanol, yielding 51.2% of extract, with a total anthocyanin content of 382.4 µg/g dried fruit, and 744.6 µg/g extract. These response values were slightly improved by studying the solid/liquid effect at the optimal conditions in dose-response format, showing steady extraction values from 5 to 40 g/L. Results show the possibility of using A. unedo fruits as a source of anthocyanin compounds for industrial applications.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
