To improve essential oil quality, especially to reserve the thermal instability of compounds, supercritical CO2 extraction (SFE) was applied to recover essential oil from Cymbopogon citronella leaves. A response surface methodology was applied to optimize the extraction process.
BACKGROUND
Essential oils of palmarosa and citronella have been extensively used in ancient Indian and South-east Asian traditional medicines.
OBJECTIVE
These essential oils have been reported to exhibit antimicrobial, anti parasitic effects against bacteria, yeasts, filamentous fungi, and viruses.
A new composite film was developed by combining Gelidium corneum (GC) with chitosan to enhance the physicochemical characteristics of GC film. In addition, to confer new functional property on the GC-chitosan composite film, various amounts (0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.5%) of java citronella essential
Citronella oil is one of the essential oils obtained from Cymbopogon sp. having medicinally important aromatic chemicals (like citronellal, citronellol, hydroxy-citronellol and geraniol) exhibiting insecticidal, anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Geraniol Dehydrogenase (GDH) is responsible
Mosquito borne diseases such as malaria, filariasis, chikunguniya, yellow fever, dengue and Japanese encephalitis are the major cause of remarkable morbidity and mortality in livestock and humans worldwide. Since ancient times, aromatic plants are used for their medicinal value. Essential oils
