Abstract

In this study, response surface methodology (RSM) and two artificial neural networks (ANN), multi-layer perceptron (MLP) and radial basis function (RBF), were used for the first time to model and optimize the extraction conditions of phenolic compounds in kidney beans in order to compare and establish effective prediction models. A total of 40 experiments were performed to screen for variables. The highest amount of polyphenols (917.2 mg GAE/100 g DW) and the strongest antioxidant activity (56.03 μmol Trolox/g DW) were obtained under optimal extraction conditions (70 min extraction time, 53% acetone, and 37 mL/g solvent-to-solid ratio). Response values were close to the predicted values with prediction accuracy as RBF > MLP > RSM, indicating that ANN model has higher prediction accuracy than RSM. Furthermore, UPLC-QTOF-MS analysis of extracts under the optimal extraction conditions showed that there were 25 antioxidant compounds detected, 13 of which were proposed from kidney beans for the first time.
