Enhanced concern for the quality and safety of food products,
increased preference for natural products, and stricter regulations
on the residual level of solvents, all contribute to the growing
use of supercritical fluid technology as a primary alternative for
the extraction, fractionation, and isolation of active ingredients.
As a solvent-free process, supercritical fluid technology is a
popular answer for the functional foods and nutraceutical sector,
one of the fastest growing consumer driven markets. Recent
advancements in the technology and increased utilization of the
process demand a comprehensive, single-source review of current and
future trends in supercritical fluid technology. Compiling
contributions from international experts in the field,
Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Nutraceuticals and Bioactive
Compounds presents the state-of-the-science in the extraction and
fractionation of bioactive ingredients by supercritical fluids.
Focusing on implemented industrial processes and trends, it reviews
the fundamentals of the technology and examines the economics of
supercritical fluid extraction systems and processes. Over the
course of twelve chapters, the book presents the supercritical
fluid extraction processes in edible oils, including fish oils and
specialty oils; herbs, such as Latin American plants and those used
in Traditional Chinese Medicine; algae; spices; antioxidants and
essential oils; as well as the processing of micro and nano-scale
materials by supercritical fluid technology. Each chapter covers
the major active components in the target material, including
chemical, physical, nutritional, and pharmaceutical properties; an
analysis of the specific supercritical fluid process used; a
comparison of traditional processing methods versus supercritical
fluid technology; and a set of conclusions with supporting data and
insight.
