'Optimum Extraction of Phenolic Compounds
from flaxseed meal and Evaluation of their
Biological Activities"
Phenolic compounds, flaxseed meal, extraction techniques,
biological activities, Pre-feasibility.
Phenolic compounds (PC) have several biological activities. In this investigation, several extraction techniques were utilized for extraction of PC from flaxseed meal (FM). The methods of extraction were:- conventional solvent extraction, ultrasonic assisted extraction, microwave assisted extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, and enzymatic assisted extraction. Different parameters, e.g. temperature and pH were studied to reach to the best extraction conditions. The phenolic products obtained were evaluated for their antioxidant, antimicrobial, anticoagulanting and anticancer activities. The phenolic extracts showed significant biological activities. A pre-feasibility study for the production of PC from FM was conducted.
