What is Supercritical Extraction of Carotenoids about?

This document summarizes a study that investigated the use of supercritical fluid extraction to extract carotenoids and chlorophyll a from the marine microalgae Nannochloropsis gaditana. The study examined the influence of pressure (100-500 bar) and temperature (40-60 °C) on the extraction yield. The results showed that a pressure of 400 bar and temperature of 60 °C was needed to obtain a significant yield of pigments. The best carotenoid to chlorophyll a ratio was obtained at 200 bar and 60 °C. The study d
