Extraction of beta-carotene from carrot via soxhlet extraction method

Extraction of carotene from carrot (Daucus Carota.L) using Soxhlet extraction method was done by using different solvent and time. Beta-carotene is the highest constituents in carotene. Fresh carrots are used as sample in this study. The effect of different parameters, which are type of solvents and...
