Optimization of β-sitosterol from SWIETENIA MAHAGONI seeds extract using supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction and its anti-diabetic activities
Swietenia mahagoni is broadly used in traditional remedies. It contains several bioactive compounds such as ß-sitosterol. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction conditions (pressure and temperature) on oil yield and ß-sitosterol content...

Swietenia mahagoni is broadly used in traditional remedies. It contains several bioactive compounds such as ß-sitosterol. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction conditions (pressure and temperature) on oil yield and ß-sitosterol content from switenia mahagoni seeds and to analyze the anti-diabetic activities of switenia mahagoni seeds extract. Swietenia mahagoni seeds extracts were obtained by SC-CO2 extraction at pressures of 20-30 MPa and temperatures of 40-60 °C.
