Bixin, a pigment used for food colouring is known to have a hyperglycemic effect. It was extracted using supercritical carbon dioxide, from the seeds of annatto (Bixa orellana L.). The major pigment in annotto, transbixin, was quantified by high pressure liquid chromatography. A combination of stati

β¦ Synopsis
A pilot plant was designed and used to extract cumin seeds (Cuminum cyminum L.) using supercritical carbon dioxide at 408C and 100 bar. The extracts obtained were compared with cumin essential oil obtained by conventional steam distillation, using GCΒ±MS. The analyses show that valuable components are extracted by the supercritical procedure, which would otherwise be thermally degraded by conventional steam distillation.
