Extraction Techniques of Brassica By-Products

Extraction Techniques of Brassica By-Products: Comparison

Please note this is a comparison between Version 2 by Wendy Huang and Version 1 by Francisco Artés-Hernández.

The Brassica genus (Brassicaceae family) is a large group of primarily herbaceous plants, one of the most important crops after soybean in world oilseed production, and as fresh vegetables, they are widely consumed throughout the year as part of salads or after cooking. This genus includes various types of well-known species such as cabbage, broccoli, brussels sprouts, kale, kohlrabi, pak choi, rape, turnip, mustard, and cress. Brassica plants are also distinguished from other vegetable plants by their high functional (phenolic and organosulfur compounds) and nutritional properties. Food losses and waste reduction are a worldwide challenge involving governments, researchers, and food industries. Therefore, by-product revalorization and the use of key extracted biocompounds to fortify innovative foods seems an interesting challenge to afford.

1. Introduction

In the last few decades, sustainable and non-thermal techniques have been optimized to reduce costs due to conventional technologies’ high energy consumption and the degradation of thermolabile nutritional compounds and the thermal instability of several bioactive compounds during the process. Therefore, it is essential to focus on innovative non-thermal ‘Green Technologies’ such as USAE, MWAE, and EAE, among others.

Most studies are focused on fruit by-products [42]^[1], finding a lack of clear evidence related to horticultural commodities, including Brassica by-products. Due to the interest in the effect of green and non-thermal treatments on Brassica by-products for phytochemical extraction, a compilation of the scientific evidence is needed to establish the optimum treatments and conditions (extraction, addition, processing, storage, and shelf-life). Additionally, the effect of processing, including blanching, drying, homogenization, and/or grinding into powder, should be studied as pretreatments of extraction techniques.

2. Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction from Brassica By-Products

USAE consists of the propagation of ultrasonic waves in a liquid medium, inducing a longitudinal displacement of particles that create cavities in the liquid, which is called acoustic cavitation [42]^[1]. This can occur with less solvent consumption, energy, and extraction time, making it an environmentally friendly and economical technique [43]^[2].

Table 1 shows the main conditions used for USAE of bioactive compounds from Brassica by-products. According to the researticlesch found, broccoli is the main Brassica studied, followed by cabbage, radish, cauliflower, and kale. The revalorization of Brassica by-products is mainly concentrated on leaves and stems, although there are articles focused on seeds. The frequency of USAE equipment ranged from 20 to 50 kHz. Power units depended on the equipment used, reporting values from 100 to 500 W, 50 W/L, or 0.228 W/cm². The best results were achieved with an aqueous solvent. Water was used as the extractant in ten of the studies found, and in seven of them it was combined with an organic solvent (ethanol, methanol, and acetonitrile), with ethanol being the main one [44,45,46,47]^[3][4][5][6]. In fact, Liu et al. [48]^[7] reported a better SFN extraction with a ratio of 1:10 for water compared to 1:50 for ethyl acetate. The solid:liquid ratio in most of the studies ranged between 1:2 and 1:50, and just one of the studies found that it worked with a more diluted extract (0.06:30) [49]^[8]. The extraction temperature used was determined by the target compound or the function to be achieved by the extraction. An extraction temperature below 30 °C was best for the GLS and SFN extractions [23,46,47,48,50,51]^{[5][6][7][9][10][11]}. However, MWAE pretreatment for a short time favored SFN extraction due to the inactivation of the myrosinase enzyme and GLS-SFN conversion. Temperatures above 45 °C were used for the extraction of phenolic compounds [43,47]^[2][6], and in the case of protein extraction, USAE was carried out in some studies [45,52,53]^[4][12][13].

. The main studied by-products came from broccoli, cabbage, and radish. Although the cv. is an important parameter to know since the phytochemical content may vary, it was not detailed in the reported manuscripts. The power intensity ranged from 130 to 400 W under atmospheric conditions, except in one study in which vacuum was applied together with MWAE to improve the extractability ^[18]. The solvents used for MWAE were different in each study, including water, water + ethanol, dichloromethane, nitric acid, or methanol. The most concentrated solid:liquid ratio used was 1:4 [57]^[19], and the most diluted was 0.5:31.5 [58]^[20]. Both obtained good results, because the extraction conditions (time, solvents, and temperature) were different. The temperature ranged from 20 to 90 °C, always below 100 °C to avoid bioactive compound degradation. The extraction time varied from 1 to 25 min, obtaining the best results with times of less than 20 min.

3. Microwave-Assisted Extraction from Brassica By-Products

The application of MWAE to enhance extraction consists of the ability to extract bioactive compounds from structural changes in cells due to the electric and magnetic fields generated by this technology. The conditions reported in previous studies to be considered in MWAE are summarized in Table 2

4. Enzymatic-Assisted Extraction from Brassica By-Products

EAE is based on the use of enzymes to break down the cell walls of plant material and improve the extraction yield of its bioactive compounds. The main conditions to be considered are shown in Table 3. Most of the Brassica by-products used in the studies come from broccoli, radish, cauliflower, and cabbage. Before EAE, by-products are usually pretreated by grounding and drying (oven at 45–60 °C or using a freeze-dryer), although particle size is rarely detailed. The enzymes used were determined by the compound to be extracted. The main enzymes found were cellulase, hemicellulase, protease, pectinase, and glucanase, among others. Papaioannou and Liakopoulou-Kyrikides [59]^[23] used a fungus to facilitate the β-carotene production from Brassica by-products. Other green technologies combined with EAE, such as MWAE [58]^[20] and USAE [60]^[24], have been used to increase the extraction yield prior to enzymatic rupture of the cell walls. Only half of the articles summarized in Table 3 detail the enzyme inactivation conditions; two of them used heating for a few minutes and one used refrigeration. The solid:liquid ratio ranged from 10:40 to 5:500, like other extraction methods using green technologies. Extraction time was highly variable, ranging from 8.4 to 1200 min, but the temperature was limited between 26 [59]^[23] and 68 °C [58]^[20].

5. Other Extraction Methods from Brassica By-Products

Although the most commonly cited green technologies in the bibliography have already been described, a considerable number of works have studied other technologies to extract bioactive compounds from Brassica sources. Previous research has shown that extracting pectin from broccoli stalks with 0.1 M nitric acid under reflux for 30 minutes [65]^[27] is effective, and that by-products of broccoli florets are an excellent source of glucoraphanin and phenolics after extraction in a thermostatic bath mixed with ethanol (0, 40, and 80%) for 10, 40, or 70 minutes [66]^[28

NA: Data not available; cv: cultivar; TAC: total antioxidant capacity; S:L: solid:liquid.

As shown, four works used supercritical fluids, one used ultrafiltration, and another used pressurized liquids. All these techniques showed higher yields for recovering bioactive compounds from Brassica by-products. Nevertheless, such techniques are even more expensive than those previously described and take longer to extract the phytochemicals, although they use lower temperatures (35–60 °C) to avoid their degradation and do not require high amounts of solvents to complete the extraction. The solid:liquid ratio is not a relevant parameter in supercritical fluid technology. However, the solvent flow rate is detailed in almost all the works found as being 2 L/min. Superficial fluid technology facilitated the extraction of bioactive compounds and antioxidants, except in the work of Marinelli et al. [53]^[13], where this technology showed the worst results compared to pressurized liquid technology.
