STUDY OF EXTRACTION OF QUERCETIN FROM PURPLE ONION (Allium ceppa L.) AND ITS USE AS A NATURAL FOOD PRESERVATIVE

The present work studied the solid-liquid extraction of the flavonoid quercetin from purple onion. Experimental studies of solvent, temperature, raw material mass per solvent volume and extraction time showed the best condition for leaching: ethanol 60% (v/v); 40°C; raw material mass (g)/solvent vol...
