Effects of pre-treatment with Aspergillus awamori and extraction methods on essential oil yield from spearmint leaves (Mentha spicata L.)

Extraction of essential oil from spearmint leaves is typically hindered by the presence of cell wall composed of lignocellulose which can be biologically degraded by microorganisms. This study aimed to investigate the effects of fermentation using Aspergillus awamori towards the lignocellulosic con...

Fermentation of the spearmint leaves were carried out for 3, 6, and 9 days followed by drying and extraction using three different techniques particularly Soxhlet, hydrodistillation and maceration.

In addition, the diffusion coefficients for extraction of spearmint oil using the different extraction methods have been estimated and lies in the range of 2.89 x 10-11 m2/s to 3.64 x 10-11 m2/s. Hence, the fermentation of spearmint leaves using A. awamori decreased the lignocellulose content and thereby increased the yield of spearmint oil.
