Popis: | Enzymatic extraction of shea butter (SB) from its kernel was undertaken and characterized using standard methods. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to determine the functional group of the extracted SB. In a preliminary study, SB was extracted using a mixture of enzymes, which had in equal proportion pectinase, α-amylase, cellulase, glucoamylase and xylanase. The operating parameters of extraction temperature (50°C), time (180 min), water/seed ratio (6:1, w/w) and pH (5) were used for the study, which yielded 32.71% SB. However, using each of the enzymes for the extraction under the same operating parameters, pectinase yielded 31.40%, which was higher compared to the yield of other enzymes. Hence, pectinase was used to optimize the operating parameters using response surface methodology. A box behnken design was adopted to evaluate the effect of each of the parameters on percentage yield of SB. The result indicated that the parameters had significant effect on the yield of SB with R2, F and p value of 0.9994, 1,375.24 and 0.0001 respectively. The interactions of water/seed ratio with other parameters showed a significant effect at p |
