Abstract

We have developed a novel microwave turbo hydrodistillation (MTHD) apparatus and have used it to extract hard, dry plant materials, for example bark, roots, and seeds. To demonstrate its feasibility, MTHD was used for extraction of dry Schinus terebinthifolius raddi berries. Although the essential oil isolated by MTHD was quantitatively (yield) and qualitatively (aromatic profile) similar to that obtained by turbo hydrodistillation (THD), MTHD was more rapid than THD (30 min compared with 180 min), thereby enabling substantial saving of time and energy. These results show that MTHD enables simple and rapid analysis of volatile compounds.
