THE STUDY OF THE EXTRACTION PROCESS OF CAROTENOID FROM TOMATOS FOR LIPSTICK PRODUCTION

Abstract

Carotenoid has been used extensively in the field of cosmetics and food. The main raw material for production is the plant extraction. The purpose of the study is to investigate single-element of temperature for drying material, the ratio of material/ solvent extraction (kerosene ete 60 - 90), the extraction temperature influenced the extraction process of carotenoid from tomatos, resulting in 60°C, 1/10 (w/v) and 55°C. On the basis of investing the factors affecting the extraction condition by applying Box-Behnken design, we found the optimal condition for the extraction process of carotenoid from tomatoes using material drying temperature of 58.62°C, a ratio of material/ solvent of 1/10 (w/v), extraction temperature of 55°C for relative carotenoid concentration of 12,95 mg/ 100 grs. Experimental result showed a high degree of compatibility with the model. Initial application of lipstick production had good results.
