The optimal extraction process of unsaturated fatty acids from Eucalyptus leaves was obtained by orthogonal test based on factors such as different solvents, material particle size, solid-liquid ratio, immersion time and extraction time. The components of extracts were analysed by GC-MS after methylation. The results from 16 tests of 5 factors and 4 levels showed that the extraction yield was 14.9% on the optimal extraction conditions, i.e., acetone as solvent, material particle size 0.075-0.150 mm, solid-liquid ratio 1:15 (g:mL), immersion time 8 h and extraction time 1.5 h. Six compounds inc...
