Implication

Randomized trial demonstrates enhanced inulin recovery in Helianthus tuberosus, suggesting ultrasound-assisted extraction is superior.

Key Points

This study aims to evaluate three extraction techniques for inulin from Helianthus tuberosus and hypothesizes that ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) improves recovery.
Inulin was extracted using percolation (60%–70% ethanol, 60°C–70°C, 6–8 h) and juice pressing (fresh tubers, thermal stabilization at 60°C) alongside UAE (water, 40 kHz, 200 W, 50°C–60°C, 20–40 min).
Experiments were performed in triplicate (n = 3).
Inulin content was determined using gravimetric methods and phenol-aniline assay with statistical analysis via one-way ANOVA (P < 0.05).
UAE achieved significantly higher yields (75.2% ± 3.1%) compared to percolation (42.6% ± 4.5%) and pressing (14.3% ± 2.2%) (P < 0.01).
UAE reduced extraction time by approximately 8–10-fold.
UAE eliminated the need for organic solvents.
