Extraction of steviol glycosides from fresh Stevia using acidified water; clarification by ultrafiltration and concentration by nanofiltration

8 June 2018 by

As part of the PPS Kleinschalige bioraffinage project (WP1b), fresh Stevia material was used in the extraction of steviol glycosides using water acidified through conversion of sugar by microorganisms naturally present on the plant. The extraction was followed by clarification using ultrafiltration and concentration by nanofiltration.
