Note: aCoefficient indicates the regression constant of the linear, quadratic, cubic and interaction terms in the polynomial equation that explain the relationship between substrate concentration (X1) and treatment time (X2) with the yield and recovery of ferulic acid (Y1, Y2) and NFPC (Y3, Y4)

bp-value lower than 0.05 indicate that the effect of the term on the yield and recovery of ferulic acid and NFPC are significant at 95% confidence interval. p-value lower than 0.01 indicate that the effect of the term on the yield and recovery of ferulic acid and NFPC are significant at 99% confidence interval
