Why is it important?
There is a remarkable increment worldwide in demand for herbs,nutraceuticals and functional foods after COVID-19 .We find out that quality of any herbal product or food supplement depends upon type of extraction and identification techniques.Traditional methods for extraction of active constituents of herbs and spices may lead to wastage of organic solvents increasing production cost.These issues can be resolved by the use of novel, green and sustainable extraction techniques.
Perspectives
Food technology innovation is very important in current situation.Food safety and quality are affected by innovative technologies.Specific attention is required for the safety of food products involving herbs and spices because herbs possess medicinal properties and provide aroma to food product.
