Saffron is the world's most expensive spice and due to its bioactive components including crocin, picrocrocin and safranal have numerous nutritional properties and unique organoleptic features. Therefore, extraction and purification of these components is of great importance for use in food and drug industries. Various methods including soaking, steam distilation, ultrasound, supercritical fluid, solid phase extraction and crystalization is evaluated in this way. Each of these methods have certain advantages and disadvantages. For saffron component purification purpose, usually a combination of two extraction methods is used.
