Abstract
Conventional methods of extracting bioactive molecules are gradually losing pace due to their numerous disadvantages, such as product degradation, lower efficiency, and toxicity. Thus, in light of the rising demand for these bioactive, enzymes have garnered much attention for their efficiency in extraction. However, enzyme-assisted extraction is also plagued with a high capital cost that cannot justify the extraction yields obtained. In order to mitigate these problems, enzyme-assisted extraction can be consorted with non-conventional methods. This review includes current progress concerning the combined approaches while converging the recent advancements in the field that outperformed conventional extraction processes. It also highlights the design of biocatalyst and key parameters involved in the effective extraction of bioactive molecules. An integrated approach for efficiently extracting polyphenols, essential oils, pigments, and vitamins has been comprehensively reviewed. Furthermore, the different immobilization strategies have been discussed for large-scale implementation of enzymes for extraction. The integration of advanced non-conventional methods with enzyme-assisted extraction will open new avenues to enhance the overall extraction efficiency.
