Comparative study on the extraction of β-carotene in the flesh and peel of papaya

The objective of this study was to compare and optimise the extraction conditions for βcarotene compounds from flesh and peel of papaya (Carica papaya) using extraction process and HPLC analysis also to determine mineral content and microbe affected. Extraction is a process to obtaining something f...
