Optimisation of essential oil yield and zerumbone content in Zingiber zerumbet extract using hydrodistillation process

The optimisation of zerumbone content in essential oil of Zingiber zerumbet was investigated using hydrodistillation extraction method. The extractions were carried out to identify the optimum condition of the processing parameters (solvent-to-solid loading ratio, particle size and time) on the esse...
