Abstract

The process of preparing curcuminoids from turmeric using the water crystallization method involves the following steps: Take the powder... Turmeric is mixed with alcohol and then extracted using a microwave. The turmeric extract is then filtered to obtain the resulting liquid. The liquid was used to crystallize the curcuminoids with water, and the curcuminoid crystals were then filtered using a reduction filtration method. Vacuum filtration was used to determine the total curcuminoid content (curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and biphenyls). Demethoxycurcumin) 95-98% by weight.

OCR 09WP 30 / 06 / 2568 1. The process of preparing curcuminoids from turmeric using the water crystallization method consists of the following steps: As follows: A. Mix the turmeric powder with alcohol. The ratio of turmeric powder to alcohol is: turmeric powder... Mix 90-150 grams of turmeric with 1 liter of alcohol, stir well, and let it stand for 5-15 minutes. B. Extract the mixture of turmeric powder and alcohol obtained from step A using microwave technology, with the following parameters: The optimal power for extraction is 900 - 8,000 watts at a temperature of 60 - 80 degrees Celsius. This process takes 10-20 minutes and will yield an extract containing turmeric powder. C. Filter the extract obtained from step B to remove the turmeric powder sediment, resulting in a turmeric extract with the following characteristics: It is a dark yellow liquid used for crystallization. D. Add water to the turmeric extract obtained from step C, adjusting the volume of water in the mixture to achieve the desired volume. Use 60-80% of the total ingredients. Mix thoroughly and store the resulting mixture at 20-30°C. At Celsius degrees Celsius for 4-14 days to crystallize the curcuminoids, then the crystals are filtered. Curcuminoids are obtained through pressure-reducing filtration, yielding red-orange crystals of curcuminoids.

5. Method for preparing curcuminoids from turmeric using water crystallization, as per claims 1 to 4. Which of the following options shows that the optimal power for extracting 3 liters is 900 watts, and the power that... For extraction of a 40-liter capacity, an appropriate power output is 8,000 watts.

6. The method for preparing curcuminoids from turmeric using water crystallization, as per claims 1 to 5. Which of the following describes the optimal temperature for extracting curcuminoids from turmeric using microwave irradiation: 70°C? 75 degrees Celsius 7. A method for preparing curcuminoids from turmeric using water crystallization, as per claims 1 to 6. Whichever method has an optimal extraction time of 14-16 minutes.

8. A method for preparing curcuminoids from turmeric using water crystallization, as per claims 1 to 7. Which of the following cases involves adding an appropriate volume of water to the mixture, which is 70% of the total mixture volume? 9. A method for preparing curcuminoids from turmeric using water crystallization, as per claims 1 through 8. Whichever option has an optimal crystallization time of 7-10 days.
