Microwave-Ultrasound assited extraction
Uses microwave (300 MHz-300 GHz) and ultrasonic cavitiation to increase temperature and pressure thereby disrupting cell walls and facilitating transfer of target compounts in to a solvent to enhance extraction efficiency.
Extraction of bioactive compounds (omega-3 fatty acids, polysaccharides, polyphenols); protein hydrolysis and realease of peptides;
