Aqueous extraction of coconut oil with various enzymes was investigated. Several enzyme preparations (cellulase, polygalacturonase, protease, and α-amylase) were used at different concentrations, pH, and temperature values to enhance oil extraction. After the oil had been released by the enzyme reac...
