The results showed that the transfer rate of silymarin from milk thistle seeds increased with the microwave output power and temperature during MAE processing. The apparent extraction rate constant k (s-1) was 1.2028×10-2 , 1.2248×10-2 , and 1.2485×10-2 , and diffusion coefficient D (m2·s-1 ) was 4.21×10-10, 4.29×10-10 , and 4.37×10-10 at the microwave temperatures of 383, 393, and 403 K, respectively, in the silymarin MAE process. With the help of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the microstructures of the samples extracted by MAE were observed. The results revealed that the increased efficiency and rate of MAE of silymarin could be attributed mainly to the subsequent cell change resulting from superheating effects during MAE.展开更多

Quantitative Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis of organic solutions containing various concentrations of trioctylamine (TOA), n octanol, and propionic acid was carried out, and liquid liquid equilibrium was investigated using TOA in n octanol as the solvent. The fraction of ion pair association between TOA and propionic acid in the organic phase was quantitatively determined by FTIR. The apparent reactive extraction equilibrium constant, K 11 , was calculated using the quantitative FTIR spectrum and the equilibrium data. The results show that the fraction of ion pair association depends on diluent concentration, complex dissolution for propionic acid, and association between TOA and propionic acid. The K 11 based on quantitative FTIR has the same loading trend as that from the equilibrium data.展开更多
