| Abstract: | It has been established that the influence of surface-active agents (SAAs), on the extraction of essential oils (EOs) is connected with a fall in the surface tension of water, which facilitates the process of steeping, wetting, and swelling of plant raw material and also the solubilization of the EOs in micellar solutions of SAAs.
