Flos Populi is an excellent source of total flavonoids used as an antidiarrheal drug. For better utilization of the resource, Box-Behnken design was used to optimize the extraction conditions of total flavonoids from Flos Populi. The effects of four independent variables in terms of extraction time, temperature, ethanol concentration, and the ratio of liquid to material on the flavonoids yield were determined and the optimal conditions for flavonoids were evaluated by means of response surface methodology. Correlation analysis of the mathematical regression model indicated that a quadratic polynomial model could be employed to characterize extraction process for the total flavonoids. Response surface plots showed that these independent variables significantly influenced the extraction yield of total flavonoids. The optimal extraction parameters to obtain the highest total flavonoids yield were temperature of 94.66 degrees C, ethanol concentration of 45.92%, the ratio of liquid to material of 18.55:1 (mL/g), and time duration of 2.27 h. The average experimental total flavonoids yield under the optimum conditions was found to be 53.08 +/- 0.43 mg/g, which agreed with the predicted value of 52.04 mg/g. The extraction method was applied successfully to extract total flavonoids from Flos Populi. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
