Novel ternary deep eutectic solvent coupled with in-situ-ultrasound synergistic extraction of flavonoids from Epimedium wushanense: machine learning, mechanistic investigation, and antioxidant activity.

ABSTRACT: This study innovatively developed a novel ternary deep eutectic solvent coupled with in-situ-ultrasound synergistic extraction (TDES-ISUSE)method for efficient extraction of total flavonoids (TF) fromEpimedium wushanense. Among 20 prepared DESs, the ternary system composed of choline bitartrate, urea, and glycerol (Chb:Ure:Gly) exhibited the highest extraction efficiency. Response surface methodology-artificial neural network-genetic algorithm (RSM-ANN-GA) optimization identified the optimal extraction parameters: water content of 32 %, vortex time of 10 min, liquid/solid ratio of 34:1 mL/g, ultrasound time of 30 min, and ultrasound power of 270 W. Under these conditions, the TF yield reached26.39 ± 0.61 mg/g, which was significantly higher than that of conventional extraction methods. Phy
