ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of ultrasound on the solvent extraction of anti-oxidants from the rosemary herb and to scale up the ultrasonic extraction process. The anti-oxidants of interest were identified using HPLC. Results indicated that, compared with conventional solvent extraction, the use of ultrasound gives a more effective extraction at lower temperatures with less dependence on the extraction solvent employed and that scale up of the process is possible.
