    This document summarizes a study on extracting ceramides from wool using supercritical fluid extraction with carbon dioxide. Ceramides play an important role in skin health and are used in skin care products. The study optimized extraction variables like temperature, pressure, modifier percentage and volumes at two laboratory scales. Larger yields of ceramides were obtained at 60°C using 10% methanol or ethanol as modifiers. Using methanol at 40°C and 5% modifier yielded slightly less ceramides. The extracted wool was still suitable for textile purposes with only minor property changes from the extraction conditions.

    Abstract
    Ceramides  play  a  major  role  in  structuring  and  maintaining  the  water  permeability
    barrier  function  of  the  skin,  and  are  widely  used  in  different  products  for  skin  care  and
    treatment. This work focused on the isolation of internal wool lipid extracts, enriched  in
    ceramides  by  supercritical  fluid  extraction  with  carbon  dioxide  (CO2),  in  an  attempt  to
    minimize  the  environmental  impact  of  the  organic  solvent  extraction  process.  Selected
    extraction  variables  were  optimized  at  two  laboratory  scales.  The  lipid  composition  of
    the different collected extracts was quantitatively analyzed by thin layer chromatography
    coupled  to  an  automated  flame  ionization  detector.  The  extracted  wool  was  physically
    and  chemically  evaluated  to  determine  its  feasibility  for  textile  purposes.  Larger
    amounts of ceramides were obtained when 10.0 % methanol or ethanol was used as a
    modifier.  Experimental  data  indicated  that  a  temperature  of  60°C  resulted  in  a  large
    yield  of  ceramides  when  low  pressure  (160  atm)  and  high  CO2  volumes  (5—7  cell
    volumes)  were  applied.  Moreover,  the  temperature  and  the  percentage  of  the  modifier
    could be reduced to 40°C and to 5.0 % when methanol was used as a modifier, yielding
    slightly  smaller  amounts  of  ceramides.  Although  slight  modifications  were  observed  in
    some  properties  of  the  fibers  because  of  the  different  extraction  conditions,  these
    differences were insignificant.
