Цікавий факт
Some saw palmettos, especially in Florida, are possibly 500-700 years old. After a fire, saw palmetto cover may return to its preburn level in as little as 1 year. Plants burned in November can sprout a fully expanded leaf by January. Saw palmetto fibers have been found among indigenous materials as far north as Wisconsin and New York, which strongly suggests wide trade before European contact.
Отримання й хімія
Спосіб отримання
In the patented method, the berries are first dried and ground substantially to a powder. Supercritical CO2 is then flowed through the powder at an extraction pressure of at least about 500 bar and a temperature lower than about 80 °C. The extracted compounds are then separated from the CO2 by decreasing the pressure.
