Extraction of Stevioside from Stevia Rebaudiana Leaves Using Cellulase

Stevioside is a diterpene glycoside present in Stevia Rebaudiana leaves that has the ability to sweeten at rated between 70 to 350 times than sucrose (0.4% w/v). It has no calorific value. Unlike many low calorie sweeteners, stevioside is stable at high temperature. The objective of this research is...
