Extraction optimization and adsorption isotherm kinetics of polyphenols from blossoms of Citrus aurantium L. var. amara Engl

摘要

Crude extracts were extracted from blossoms of Citrus aurantium L. var. amara Engl. with 50% ethanol (CAVAP-E), 50% methanol (CAVAP-M), and hot water (CAVAP-W). CAVAP-W had the highest polyphenol yield of 3.7%. The optimum values of liquid/solid ratio, ultrasonic time, and ultrasonic power were 34.06 mL/g, 1 h, and 81.04 W, respectively. The adsorption characteristics of polyphenols were investigated using different macroporous resins. AB-8 and HP-20 resins offered higher adsorption and desorption capacities. Langmuir equation was more suitable to predict the adsorption of polyphenols. The pseudo second-order model was satisfactory to describe the kinetic data of polyphenols onto AB-8 and HP-20.
