Central composite design process optimization of ultrasound-assisted extraction of phenolic compounds from Manihot esculenta leaves
Cassava (Manihot esculenta) leaves are an underutilized biomass source of phenolic compounds. This study optimized ultrasound-assisted extraction using a central composite design with extraction time and solid-to-liquid ratio as independent variables and total phenolic content (TPC) as the response. Across 13 runs, TPC...
