NEW METHOD FOR CAROTENOID EXTRACTION FROM SOLIDAGO CANADENSIS BLOSSOMS AS A BASIS FOR THE CREATION OF DRUGS WITH ANTIOXIDANT PROPERTIES

Abstract

The extracting properties of various organic solvents is studied. The significance of using a mixture of castor oil with 96% ethanol for a more complete extraction of carotenoids from plant material and to create inexpensive environmentally safe anti-inflammatory drug with antioxidant properties is established. It is suggested to use Canadian goldenrod blossoms as unlimited raw resource, to reduce the spread of this extended invasive species.
