It allows scientists to isolate, purify, and identify active ingredients that are responsible for the therapeutic effects of medicines. The process works by selecting a suitable solvent that can dissolve the desired compounds without affecting their quality or stability. Traditional extraction methods such as maceration, percolation, Soxhlet extraction, infusion, and decoction have been used for many years due to their simplicity and low cost. However, these methods often require more time and larger amounts of solvent. Modern extraction techniques like Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction (UAE), Microwave-Assisted Extraction (MAE), Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE), and Accelerated Solvent Extraction (ASE) provide faster, more efficient, and environmentally friendly alternatives. They help improve extraction yield, reduce processing time, and protect heat-sensitive compounds. Extraction plays a major role in various pharmaceutical activities including drug discovery, herbal analysis, impurity removal, and sample preparation for analytical instruments like HPLC, GC, and LC-MS. It also ensures that medicines are safe, effective, and of high quality through proper standardization and quality control. Overall, extraction is a vital step in pharmaceutical science because it supports accurate analysis, reliable results, and the development of safe medicinal products.
