Abstract
Abstract
The bioactive compounds and antioxidant activities of propolis extracts were investigated using subcritical water extraction (SWE). SWE was performed by varying 1extraction temperature (110–200°C) and time (10–30 min). SWE using only water as the solvent successfully to extracted bioactive compounds from propolis using high-purity glass thimbles. The concentrations of galangin (16.37 ± 0.61 mg/g), and chrysin (7.66 ± 0.64 mg/g) from propolis were maximal at 200°C for 20 min, and 170°C for 20 min, respectively. The maximum yields of the total phenolics (226.37 ± 4.37 mg/g), flavonoids (70.28 ± 1.33 mg/g), and antioxidant activities (88.73 ± 0.58%, 98.86 ± 0.69%, and 858.89 ± 11.48 mg/g) were obtained at 200°C for 20 min. Compared with using conventional ethanol extraction (at 25°C for 24 h), all yields of SWE extracts obtained at 200°C for 20 min were higher. These results indicated that SWE is a much faster and more efficient method for extracting bioactive compounds from propolis.
