Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of podophyllotoxin from Dysosma pleiantha roots.
Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) was utilized to extract podophyllotoxin from the roots of Dysosma pleiantha. The extraction was carried out in the temperature range of 40-80 degrees C and the pressure range of 13.6-34.0 MPa with supercritical carbon dioxide. However, podophyllotoxin was not sufficiently extracted by pure supercritical carbon dioxide. Methanol was used as modifier to enhance the extraction yield of podophyllotoxin. As a result, SFE produced a higher recovery of podophyllotoxin than conventional 95% ethanol extraction.
