Abstract

A method of subcritical water extraction (SCWE) of biologically active substances from milk thistle seed (Silybum marianum L.) that makes it possible to obtain aqueous extracts without using organic solvents is suggested. The contents of hepatoprotective biologically active substances (taxifolin, silychristin, silydianin, and silybin) in milk thistle seed extracts obtained by SCWE and by standardized liquid extraction procedures are compared.
