Supercritical CO(2) Extraction of Annatto (Bixa orellana) Pigments and Some Characteristics of the Color Extracts

Supercritical CO2 (SC-CO2) was used to extract natural food colors from Annatto (Bixa orellana) seeds with different pressures and temperatures. The results from the reverse thin-layer chromatographic separation revealed that SC-CO2 extracts were composed mainly of bixin, geranylgeraniol and norbixi...
