Ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) was applied to extract total carotenoids from dried peach palm peel using soy oil as extraction solvent. Optimization of UAE parameters of total carotenoid extraction from dried peel was done using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) and Central Composite Design (CCD). The extraction parameters were temperature, extraction time and solid to solvent ratio. The optimum UAE conditions were 48°C, extraction time of 28 min, and solid to solvent ratio of 0.0037 g/mL, with a predicted carotenoids content of 151.50 mg/100 g dried peel. To validate the optimized model, the experimental values were compared with the predicted values to check the adequacy of the model. Ultrasound extraction was 33.60% higher than maceration technique. This study indicated that UAE should contribute to a green process for valorization of peach palm by-products.
Se aplicó la tecnología de extracción asistida por ultrasonido (EAU) para extraer los carotenoides totales procedentes del epicarpio seco de frutos de chontaduro utilizando aceite de soya como solvente de extracción. La optimización de los parámetros de extracción total de carotenoides a partir del epicarpio de chontaduro se realizó mediante la metodología de superficie de respuesta (RSM) y el diseño central compuesto (CCD). Los parámetros de extracción fueron la temperatura, el tiempo de extracción y la relación sólido-solvente. Las condiciones óptimas de la extracción asistida por EAU fueron: 48 ° C, tiempo de extracción de 28 min, y relación de sólido-solvente de 0.0037 g/mL, con un contenido de carotenoides predicho de 151.50 mg/100 g de epicarpio seco. Para validar el modelo optimizado, los valores experimentales se compararon con los valores predichos para verificar la adecuación y el ajuste del modelo. La extracción mediante ultrasonido fue 33.60% más alta que la técnica de maceración, razón por la cual este estudio indicó que la EAU representa una contribución ecológica en la valorización de subproductos procedentes de frutos de chontaduro.
