The Use of Silicones as Extractants of Biologically Active Substances from Vegetable Raw Materials

Based on theoretical studies, the authors of this paper propose the use of cosmetic organosilicon polymers (commonly called silicones) for the extraction of a complex of biologically active substances contained in vegetable raw materials. It is important to note that the biological molecules do not...
