| Research Abstract |
Using supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of medicinal properties from Chinese herb plants was studied. Also, experiments were conducted to extract vitamins from rice bran in the supercritical carbon dioxide environment. In both cases, studies were made, in particular, to explore effects of temperature, pressure and entrainers (water, alcohols, esters etc.) on the materials extracted. Compositions of many extracts are now being analyzed. It was found out that a considerable amount of triglycerides was extracted from rice bran.
