Abstract
Abstract Acetyl 11 keto β boswellic acid (AKBA), a potent anti-inflammatory agent obtained from Boswellia serrata oleogum resin, is mostly used for the treatment of various chronic inflammatory diseases. Ethanol modified supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) was employed to extract AKBA from Boswellia serrata. The optimal conditions for AKBA extraction were determined by Box–Behnken design which was employed to estimate the effect of three independent variables (pressure, extraction time and temperature) on the AKBA yield. The interactions between pressure with temperature and extraction time were found to be significant (p
