Mechanical extraction of shea butter: Optimisation and characterisation studies with comparison to other methods of extraction
Shea butter (SB) production by mechanical extraction (ME) was optimised by box-behnken (BB) experimental design of response surface methodology (RSM). The process parameters studied (with their ranges) were sample weight (100 – 200 g), temperature (60 – 120oC) and duration of applied pressure (10...
