A method id disclosed for extracting from vegetable substances, especially seeds and seed flour, toxic substances of a glucosidic nature, such as for example simmondsin from jojoba seed flour. An organic solvent (or more organic solvents) containing at least one polar group is combined with an acidic electrolyte in aqueous solution and the extraction is carried out at room temperature and can be repeated. The contents of simmondsin thus drops from about 3% to 750 parts per million approx. |
