ABSTRACT
Using waste materials to extract biologically active ingredients with green solvents is a new trend for sustainable development. Herein, different types of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) and surfactant solvents (SSs) were used to extract curcumin from turmeric residues (TRs), among which choline chloride-propylene glycol (ChCl-Pro) showed the highest yield. The optimized extraction conditions included a ChCl Pro ratio of 1 2, water content in the DESs of 20%, solid liquid ratio of 1 40 maintained for 60 min at 50 °C, and a TR particle size of 0.18 mm. The extraction yield was 54.2 mg g-1, which was 1.31 times higher than when methanol was used as a solvent. Distilled water was used to recover curcumin from the DES extract with a recovery yield of 99.7%. Furthermore, the antioxidant and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activities of the recovered curcumin were evaluated, with IC50 values of 25.58 ± 0.51 and 19.12 ± 0.83 µg mL-1, respectively. This study highlights the promising potential of using green solvents to extract bioactive compounds from waste materials.
