Advances in Extraction, Purification, and Identification of Curcumin
Author(s): Ankai Zhang*
Curcumin is extensively utilized across industries, with diverse methodologies available for its extraction, purification, and identification—including organic solvent extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE), macroporous resin adsorption, and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. This review summarized current approaches and identifies three optimal techniques: ionic liquid-integrated ultrasound-assisted enzymatic extraction (IL-UAE-EE) for isolation, macroporous resin coupling with thin-layer chromatography for purification, and direct analysis in real time-mass spectrometry (DART-MS) for rapid detection. Systematic optimization of these methods yields notable improvements: the IL-UAE-EE system significantly boosts extraction efficiency; macroporous resin-TLC coupling achieves curcumin purity up to 95.73%; and the DART-MS platform enables high-through..
