Optimization of ultrasound assisted extraction of bioactive components from brown seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum using response surface methodology
Open accessAbstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of key extraction parameters of extraction time (5-25 min), acid concentration (0-0.06 M HCl) and ultrasound amplitude (22.8-114 μm) on yields of bioactive compounds (total phenolics, fucose and uronic acid) from Ascophyllumnodosum. Response surface methodology was employed to optimize the extraction variables for bioactive compounds' yield. A second order polynomial model was fitted well to the extraction experimental data with (R(2)>0.79). Extraction yields of 143.12 mgGAE/gdb, 87.06 mg/gdb and 128.54 mg/gdb were obtained for total phenolics, fucose and uronic acid respectively at optimized extraction conditions of extraction time (25 min), acid concentration (0.03 M HCl) and ultrasonic amplitude (114 μm). Mass spectroscopy analysis of extracts show that ultrasound enhances the extraction of high molecular weight phenolic compounds from A. nodosum. This study demonstrates that ultrasound assisted extraction (UAE) can be employed to enhance extraction of bioactive compounds from seaweed.

Kadam et al. observed extraction of fucose and uronic acid; higher extraction yield for phenolic content and uronic acid when acid used, while acid did not contribute to higher fucose content; higher acid concentration decreased extraction yield due to acid hydrolysis and degradation.
“Except the extraction of phenols, Kadam et al. [52] also observed the extraction of fucose and uronic acid. They showed that the higher extraction yield was obtained for phenolic content and uronic acid when acid was used, while the use of acid did not contribute to the higher fucose content. If the higher concentration of acid was used, the decrease in the extraction yield occurred due to acid”

Higher amount of TPC is shown by Kadam et al. because they used acid (0.03 M HCl) as solvent, while Dang et al. used ethanol; both authors used various species, which explained difference.

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.
