Abstract:

Supercritical CO2 was used to extract abalone visceral oil. To optimize the extraction conditions, the statistical
software SAS 9.2 was applied to design the experiment with response surface methodology. The impacts of pressure,
temperature, and time on extractability were investigated. It was found that the optimum extraction pressure, temperature
and time were 31.2 MPa, 42.3 ℃ and 9.4 min, respectively. The extraction rate was 75.23% under the optimized conditions.
Ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS) was then
used to analyze the extracted oil. A total of 39 fatty acids with different lengths of carbon chain and numbers of double
bonds were detected, including 9 kinds of saturated fatty acids, 8 kinds of monounsaturated fatty acids and 22 kinds of
polyunsaturated fatty acids.
