An improved method to obtain essential oil, flavonols and proanthocyanidins from fresh Cinnamomum japonicum Sieb. leaves using solvent-free microwave-assisted distillation followed by homogenate extraction

An efficient solvent-free microwave-assisted distillation followed by homogenate extraction method (SFMD-HE) was established to separate the essential oil, non-volatile flavonols and proanthocyanidins from Cinnamomum japonicum Sieb. leaves. In the SFMD-HE technology applied in this work, no excessiv...
