A PROCESS FOR THE EXTRACTION OF POLYPHENOLS FROM BEES WAX

摘要

A process for the extraction of polyphenols from bees wax which comprises in the steps of, agitating wax for 20 to 24 hours in a polar organic solvent to obtain a slurry, filtering the slurry through filler paper which retains coarse and gelatinous precipitates, respectively washing the paper, collecting the washings and pooled for precipitating the phenols, bringing the phenols to room temperature and filtering, the polar solvents in which the polyphenols are dissolved being removed under reduced pressure at a temperature of 5 to 60°C.
