- Abstract
This work provides an optimized extraction approach intended to maximize the recovery of dihydromyricetin (DHM) from Chinese vine tea (Ampelopsis grossedentata) leaves. The presented work adopts a Box-Behnken design as a response surface methodology to understand the role and influence of specific extraction parameters including: time, temperature, and solvent composition/ethanol (%) on DHM final yields. Initially, single factor experiments were used to delineate the role of above factors (temperature, time, and solvent composition) before proceeding with three factors-three levels Box-Behnken design with 17 separate runs to assess the effect of multifactorial treatments on DHM recovery rates. The collected data shows that independent variables (solvent composition, time, and temperature) can significantly affect DHM recovery rates with maximum yields resulting from a combined 60 °C, 60% aqueous ethanol, and 180 min treatment. From the empirical point of view, the above optimized extraction protocol can substantially enhance processing and profitability margins with a minimum need of interventions or associated costs.
