Effect of Ultrasound and Enzyme on The Extraction of Eurycoma Longifolia (Tongkat Ali)

Tongkat Ali, or Eurycoma Longifolia, is a traditional Malay and Orang Asli herb used as aphrodisiac, general tonic, anti-Malaria, and anti-Pyretic. It has been recognized as a cashcrop by Malaysia due to its high value for the pharmaceutical use. In tongkat ali, eurycomanone, a quassinoid is usually...
