Unleashing the Potential of Medicinal Plants in Benin ..., MDPI
Medicinal plants play a crucial role in the primary health care of the population in developing countries such as Benin. The national universities of Benin conduct research on the pharmacological, toxicological, and phytochemical properties of these plants, but the resulting knowledge often does not lead to the development of phytomedicines for the improvement of public health. This study aims
The methods used to extract essential oil from these plants are; steam distillation (SD), solvent-assisted extraction, hydro distillation (HD), ultrasonic-assisted extraction, supercritical fluid extraction and solvent-free microwave extraction (Belhachat et al., 2018). Oil extraction techniques are classified as shown in Fig. 1. Conventional
How to Extract Oil from Plants (Plus the Numerous Benefits
1. Steam Distillation. This is a process where steam goes through the plant leaves to extract the oils. If you plan on extracting plant oils on a regular basis, then invest in a still. You can purchase a still on Amazon for around $100. Fun fact: this is the most popular form of extracting oils from your plants.
Plants from West Africa commonly used in both human and veterinary medicine contain various secondary metabolites. However, their potential in mitigating ruminal methane production has not been explored. This study examined the effects of seven
Role of plant extracts and essential oils in fighting against
The packaging contains isocyanate-free polyurethane adhesive, in addition to cinnamon essential oil; it has been evaluated in tomato puree, and is highly efficient against different pathogens (Zanetti et al., 2018). 5. Resistance mechanisms to fungal attack of fruit treated by plant extracts/essential oils
Also called volatile or ethereal oils (Wu et al., 2022; Ju et al., 2022; Zheng et al., 2023), essential oils are secondary metabolites synthesized by aromatic and medicinal plants and correspond to a very small fraction of the plant's total composition, approximately less than 5% of the vegetable dry matter. Plant aromatic extracts are volatile
How Essential Oils Are Made: Extracting the Essence from Plants
This method submerges plant material in boiling water rather than direct steam. The process involves placing the plant material in a still and covering with water. As the water boils, the hot vapor passes through the plant material, extracting the essential oils. The vapor travels through a cooled condenser, allowing the oils to condense.
1. Distillation. This method only needs 3 ingredients: water, steam, and lots of plants. You gently place the plants into simmering water, let them sit for a while to collect steam, and then remove the oil that collects on top of the water and place the oil in a glass container.
Chemical composition and biological activities of essential
Plants material and isolation of the essential oils The plant material was collected in two areas of Benin at Godomey (Samples 1, 2, 3) in April, May
Essential oils have been schown to be effective in controlling the spread of certain bacterial agents [3, 4]. In Benin, more than 80% of the population uses plants for care needs [5]. Psidium guajava,
