Studies on Extraction, Modelling and Purification of Quercetin from Peel of Allium cepa
Abstract: ABSTRACT Quercetin is an anti-oxidant, which very efficiently scavenges highly reactive biological species such as peroxynitrite and hydroxyl radical. Quercetin belongs to the flavonoid’s family. The present studies on optimization of physico-chemical parameters like effects of different solvents, different solvent percentages, particle size, pH and extraction time for the extraction of quercetin was studied. The highest quercetin concentration for optimized conditions was 38 µg/ml. In the soxhlet extraction process, the …
