Article Abstract

is a significant source of phenolics. Owing to the incessant demand of green extraction procedures for phenolics from , ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) using deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was optimized. Among the tested DESs, betaine-levulinic acid afforded the highest total phenolic content (TPC). Moreover, the optimal extraction conditions elucidated from single-factor and response surface methodologies comprised a 52.41°C ultrasonic temperature, 46.48% water content of DES, and 26.99 ml/g liquid-to-solid ratio. The corresponding TPC (56.27 mg GAE/100 g DW) and antioxidant ability fitted the predicted values. UAE afforded superior TPC and antioxidant abilities with DESs than with traditional solvents. Using UHPLC-MS, seven phenolic acids, 18 flavonoids, and two bromophenols were identified and quantified. DES-UAE afforded the highest phenolic compound number (26) and sum of contents. These results disclose the high extraction efficiency of DES-UAE for phenolics and provide a basis for the higher-value application of this species.

Lemon balm (), a perennial herb belonging to the Lamiaceae family, is widely recognized for its medicinal properties and therapeutic benefits. This review offers a detailed exploration of the botanical features, phytochemical composition, and pharmacological uses of , highlighting key bioactive compounds such as phenolic acids (including rosmarinic and caffeic acids), flavonoids, essential oils (such as citral and citronellal), and triterpenoids (ursolic and oleanolic acids). Advanced extraction techniques, such as ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), pressurized liquid extraction (PLE), supercritical fluid extraction (SFE), and matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD), have greatly improved the efficiency of extraction, the preservation of bioactivity, and the sustainability of acquiring these bioactive compounds.

Soil washing with surfactants is a promising technique for remediating petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated soils. This study evaluates a biosurfactant extracted from Eichhornia crassipes (water hyacinth), an abundant aquatic weed in Thailand, using ultrasound-assisted extraction for diesel-contaminated soil remediation. The biosurfactant extract (Extract WH) was characterized for its surface tension reduction, critical micelle concentration (CMC), emulsification capacity with diesel, and phytotoxicity.

As a naturally derived biomacromolecule, chitosan is widely utilized in food preservation. However, the chitosan derived from silkworm pupae and its application in food preservation are relatively unexplored. To obtain chitosan with enhanced preservation properties, silkworm pupae chitosan was extracted using dual-frequency ultrasound-assisted chemical and enzymatic methods, followed by a comparative analysis of their physicochemical properties, biological activity, and preservation efficacy on strawberries.

Background: Monitoring industrial processes is critical for ensuring consistent product quality, as consumers expect uniformity across different production batches. In the case of herbal extracts, such as rosemary hydroalcoholic extracts, it is essential to control the yield of target compounds to maintain both the expected quality and safety. Typically, these extracts are produced in an extractor and then analyzed separately in a laboratory (offline).
