Comparison of Tongkat Ali root chemical composition extracted by soxhlet, conventional steam and microwave assisted extraction techniques

Eurycoma longifolia Jack (Tongkat Ali) roots are used in traditional medicines for its wide range of biological effects. The process of extracting out this essential oil from the plant requires a delicate and efficient method. In this research the extract of the essential oil of Eurycoma longifol...
