Extraction of essential oil from orange peels

The microwave-assisted solvent extraction (MASE) technique is a promising technique which is highlighted by increased extraction yield, decreased time and solvent consumption; moreover the reproducibility is better. Isolation of citrus essential oils from orange peels was analyzed by gas chromatogra...
