Sažetak
The research evaluates the extraction yield and antioxidant potentials of essential oil (EO) of sweet orange peels using pressurized liquid extraction (PLE), Soxhlet (Sox) and hydro distillation (HD). The extracts were investigated to find out the antioxidant properties using 2, 2 -diphenyl-1- picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) and 2, 2 azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate) radical (ABTS•+). PLE and Soxhlet extracted essential oil showed additional polyphenol compounds and tannins using thin layer chromatogram (TLC) and chemical analyses, respectively. Hydrodistillation indicating a pure essential oil without identified tannins and polyphenols with the highest ABTS activity compared to other produced essential oils of PLE and Soxhlet. The major chemical constituents of the pure essential oil were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and they include limonene (90.72%), myrcene (2.82%) and octanol acetate (1.24%). PLE had moderate high yield within short extraction time and the highest antioxidant (DPPH) and can be adjusted to individual materials to maximize the extraction yield and antioxidant property.
