  • Title: Extraction of Bioactive Compounds.
    Journal: Prog Drug Res; 2016; 71():11-3. PubMed ID: 26939260.
    Abstract:
    A bioactive compound influences the health of living organisms and it has extranutritional constituents that typically occur in low quantities in foods, which helps to enhance or boost the immune system. Plants and their products possess bioactive compounds, i.e., secondary metabolites. Here, extraction is an important process to isolate the bioactive compounds. Biological activities of the extract show a significant variation depending on the extraction methods and this also opens a gateway for selecting suitable extraction methods. Hence, different extraction methods have been discussed in this section, which influences the extraction of phytochemicals.
