Optimization of beta-sitosterol extraction from leucaenaleucochepala by microwave assisted hydrodistillation

Microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (MAH) extraction process can extract phytosterol (beta-sitosterol) from Leucanea leucochepala. The suitable parameter of the extraction process to extract the highest yield of phytosterol from a plant can be optimized by usung central composite design (CCD). Two...
