Multi response optimisation of polyphenol extraction conditions from grape seeds by using ultrasound assisted extraction (UAE)
Multi response optimisation conditions were investigated in grape seeds' phenolic compounds extraction by using ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) methodology. The effect of independent process variables such as EtOH concentration (0-100%), extraction time (0-40min), solvent:solid ratio (4.5-38.5mL/g) and extraction temperature (20-60 degrees C) on total phenolic content (TPC) and total antioxidant activity (TAA) of the extracts were studied. The optimum conditions of UAE were determined as follows: EtOH concentration, 61.76%; extraction time 20min., solvent:solid ratio, 30mL/g; extraction temperature 50 degrees C. The estimation results of the model and the experimental results for TPC and TAA showed a great similarity.
