Optimization of total monomeric anthocyanin (TMA) and total phenolic content (TPC) extractions from mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana Linn.) hull using ultrasonic treatments

Abstract

The extraction yields of anthocyanins (TMA) and total phenolics (TPC) from mangosteen hull were optimized by varying the amplitude and time of ultrasonic treatment. The highest TMA recovery of 2.92. mg cy-3-glu/g hull powder was achieved using methanol aqueous solvent when direct ultrasonic treatment was applied for 15. min at 20% amplitude. For the TPC, 245.78. mg GAE/g hull powder was obtained in ethanol with sonication time of 25. min and at 80% amplitude. These TMA and TPC yields obtained are respectively 45.6% and 8.8% higher (p
