Introduction: Annona muricata L. (soursop) is used in ethnomedicine for the treatment of various diseases. Leaves of this species have been found to contain flavonoids, which are compounds with antidiabetic, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Objective: optimization of operational parameters on the solid–liquid extraction of flavonoids from A. muricata leaves. Methods: Evaluation of the operational variables was based on Composite Center Design (CCD) of Response surface methodology (R...
