| Summary: | The objective of this study was to compare a-glucosidase inhibitory activity of Phaleria macrocarpa
extracts using subcritical carbon dioxide (subCO2) soxhlet extraction method with sonication and
solvent extraction methods. The extraction was performed by subCO2 soxlet using carbon dioxide
and the conventional organic solvent-based sonication using ethanol and water, solvent extraction
using methanol, and n-hexane solvents. The yields and a-glucosidase inhibitory activity of the P.
macrocarpa extracts were analyzed. The yields using sonication, solvent extraction, and subCO2
soxhlet extraction were approximately 10.261.0 to 25.460.6% and 0.960.1 to 2.061.0%. The
IC50 value of subCO2 soxhlet, sonication, and solvent extraction methods were 4.35, 7.34, and 1.9
mg/mL, respectively. The a-glucosidase inhibitory activity of P. macrocarpa extract using subCO2
soxhlet method was higher than the conventional sonication method and lower than the solvent
extraction method. Overall, subCO2 soxhlet extraction of P. macrocarpa represents a promising
method to produce organic solvent free and highly a-glucosidase inhibitory compounds containing
extracts. |
