Lavandula Essential Oil Extraction Data with GC-MS and Antioxidant Assay Results

Experimental data on enhancing essential oil extraction from Lavandula pubescens using integrated ultrasonic-microwave techniques and enzymatic pretreatment. The work includes results from gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis and free radical-scavenging activity assays. It was authored by Marwan M. A. Rashed and published via the paperswithcode platform.

Use Cases

• Optimizing extraction process parameters based on reported enzyme concentration, sonication time, and microwave power.
• Analyzing chemical composition profiles based on GC-MS results mentioned in the description.
• Evaluating antioxidant potential based on DPPH and ABTS assay results.
• Comparing the efficacy of different enzymatic pretreatments (cellulase, hemicellulase, mixed) on yield and compound ratios.

Strengths

• Includes specific optimal extraction conditions: enzyme concentration of 14.82 mg/100 mL, sonication time of 38.18 min, and microwave power at 333 W.
• Reports concrete quantitative outcomes: a maximum yield of 0.67%, DPPH radical scavenging activity of 65.40%, and an ABTS result of 0.025 mM Trolox.
• Uses multiple analytical techniques: GC-MS for composition and SEM for morphological tracking, as mentioned.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
