Abstract
Several types of capsaicinoids can be present in the oleoresin extracted from hot peppers Capsicum annuum
L.(Solanaceae). A major component of this group is capsaicin (69%). The extraction of the oleoresin from the
fruit of hot pepper can be made in many ways. The most appropriate, in our experiments is extraction by Soxlet,
and this procedure was compared to extractions with vacuum filtration. We have used an ethanol as appropriate
for extraction and quantification of capsaicin for food and pharmaceutical grade.
Content of capsaicin in three different varieties of hot peppers with Macedonian origin was measured
spectrometrically and results were compared with the sweet pepper variety as a control. Results of quantification
measurements made for Soxlet oleoresins were differing in a really special way from the results for vacuum
filtration oleoresins, and it’s due to conditions used for the procedure of extraction. These results are showing
that for extraction of capsaicin in different aims, conditions should be always adjusted.
