Green Optimization of Sesame Seed Oil Extraction via Pulsed Electric Field and Ultrasound Bath: Yield, Antioxidant Activity, Oxidative Stability, and Functional Food Potential.

ABSTRACT: Sesame seed oil is a bioactive-rich lipid source, notable for lignans, tocopherols, and unsaturated fatty acids that underpin its antioxidant and cardioprotective properties. This study optimized two innovative, non-thermal extraction techniques-pulsed electric field (PEF) and ultrasound bath-assisted extraction (UBAE)-to maximize yield and preserve oil quality for functional food applications. A blocked definitive screening design combined with response surface methodology modeled the effects of energy power (X₁, 60-100%), liquid-to-solid ratio (X₂, 10-20 mL/g), and extraction time (X₃, 10-30 min) on fat content, DPPH antiradical activity, and oxidative stability indices (Conjugated Dienes, CDs/Conjugated Trienes, CTs). UBAE achieved t
