The purpose of this study was to identify the potentials of Ferulla Persica extract as a native and novel source of antioxidants and polyphenols. In this research, the optimization of extraction conditions from the leaf of Ferulla Persica was studied by response surface methodology (RSM) at 3 temperature levels (20, 40 and 60 °C), three time levels (2, 3 and 4 hours) and three levels of water to ethanol ratio (50, 75 and 100%). RSM was used to evaluate the effect of different optimization processes on extraction efficiency, antioxidant activity and total phenolic content. Based on the results of optimization, a second-order polynomial model was designed to optimize the extraction conditions as the best model. the optimum conditions of extraction were in the solvent ratio of 79.58% at 20 °C during 2 hours. In these conditions, the optimum point has yield of 17.61%, EC50 equal to 87.20 (μg/ml) and TPC of 140428.0 (mg GAE/g). M3 ER -
