In this study, ethanolic microwave-assisted extraction of total phenolic content (TFC), total flavonoid content (TFC) and antioxidant from Vernonia amygdalina leaf was investigated using response surface methodology. Four extraction variables, including irradiation time (1‒5 min), microwave power le...
