Abstract

The air-dried aerial leaves of Petroselinum crispum, Thymus satureioides and dried Spirulina platensis powder were separately extracted using a Soxhlet apparatus. The dark green solution obtained was subject to the dechlorophyllation by two techniques, the electrocoagulation and solvent extraction. The obtained absorbances, were particularly much lower for electrocoagulation process. This result showed that this technique can remove easily plant pigments in the extracts, without affecting the chemical composition on secondary metabolites.
