Optimization of Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Oil from the Fruit of Gardenia jasminoides and Its Antidepressant Activity

A response surface methodology was applied to optimize the variables affecting the supercritical fluid carbon dioxide extraction of oil from the fruit of Gardenia jasminoides using the Box–Behnken design. The optimum extraction parameters were an extraction temperature of 49.94 °C, an extraction pres...
