  • What are the secondary metabolites in cocoa bean shells?
  • Theobromine, caffeine, catechin, and epicatechin have been reported to be the major secondary metabolites in cocoa bean shells . Then, their contents were analyzed for the extract obtained under pre-treatment 1 for each PEF condition.
  • Why is cocoa bean shell a good source of bioactive ingredients?
  • Several studies have shown that cocoa bean shell is a source of biologically active compounds that can be used as functional ingredients in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries . Phenolic and methylxanthine contents are the main reasons to select CBS as an inexpensive raw material to yield bioactive ingredients .
  • Is ethanol a safe extractant for vegetable oil extraction in UAE?
  • Organic solvents, such as ethanol, methanol, and hexane have been reported for UAE extraction of vegetable oils; however, ethanol has been granted the Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS); so, this is the preferred choice as extractant to extract bioactive compounds and due to lack of any safety concerns (Ameer, Shahbaz, & Kwon, 2017).
  • What is cocoa bean shell (CBS)?
  • Cocoa bean shell (CBS) is a by-product from the cocoa and chocolate industry that represents between 12 and 20% of the cocoa bean . Several studies have shown that cocoa bean shell is a source of biologically active compounds that can be used as functional ingredients in the food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries .
  • Do high pressure maxima in SCFs correlate with CO2 extraction?
  • These high pressure maxima in SCFs have been shown to correlate with those attained using normal liquid solvents (King, 2013) and recently have been applied to optimize the CO 2 extraction of cannabinoids and terpenes as well as seed oil from Cannabis satliva L. (King, 2019). 7. Conclusion
  • Are there alternative green solvents for extraction of plant-based oils?
  • Moreover, extraction of plant-based oils may result in the consumption of high amounts of hexane; hence, there is a dire need to expedite the process of exploring alternative green solvents, such as ionic liquids, terpenes, and aqueous enzyme-assisted extraction.
