Abstract

Mint essential oil (MEO) is an economically appreciated natural product with significant importance in the cosmetics, pharmaceutics, foods, and healthcare products due to its biological activities. Extraction is a critical step in the production of essential oils from aromatic plants, such as mint. Conventional extraction approaches, such as steam distillation and solvent extraction are commonly used for the extraction of MEO. However, they are energy and time-consuming processes with relatively low extraction yields. Consequently, emerging techniques, such as microwave-assisted, ohmic-assisted, ultrasound-assisted, pulsed electric field, and super and sub-critical fluid extraction methods have been developed to overcome these shortcomings. This review aims to investigate the influence of different extraction methods and conditions on the extraction yield, composition, physicochemical properties, and bioactivity of MEO. Overall, selection of appropriate extraction method and conditions is a crucial step in the extraction of MEO that can have significant effects on the quality and quantity of the isolated EOs. Inappropriate extraction of MEO may reduce the extraction yield, prolong the extraction duration, and increase the energy consumption. Additionally, it may deteriorate the physicochemical properties and bioactivity of the extracted MEO.

薄荷(Mentha spp.)精油提取:从传统技术到新兴技术
薄荷精油(MEO)是一种具有经济价值的天然产品,由于其生物活性,在化妆品、制药、食品和保健品领域具有重要意义。萃取是生产薄荷等芳香植物精油的关键步骤。传统的萃取方法,如蒸汽蒸馏和溶剂萃取,通常用于提取 MEO。然而,这些方法耗能耗时,萃取率相对较低。因此,微波辅助、欧姆辅助、超声波辅助、脉冲电场以及超临界和亚临界流体萃取法等新兴技术应运而生,以克服这些缺点。本综述旨在研究不同萃取方法和条件对 MEO 的萃取率、成分、理化性质和生物活性的影响。总之,选择适当的提取方法和条件是提取 MEO 的关键步骤,会对分离出的 EO 的质量和数量产生重大影响。不恰当的 MEO 提取方法可能会降低提取率,延长提取时间,增加能耗。此外,还可能会降低提取的 MEO 的理化性质和生物活性。
