study on the possibility of phenolic compounds extraction from “baneh” leaves

Baneh” or wild pistachio is a tree that has long been used in traditional medicine# in this study, nine solvents (pure methanol, methanol20% , methanol 50% , methanol 80%, pure acetone, acetone 30% , acetone 50%, distilled water, acidic water) were used to determine the best solvent for extraction of phenolic compounds# the amount of phenolic compounds in the extract was evaluated by colorimetric method# comparison of extraction mean of different solvents showed significant differences in extraction of phenolic compounds# also, multiple comparisons test showed that the amount of phenolic compounds extracted with 80% methanol was significantly higher than other solvents (p <0#05)#
