All values are presented as the mean of three replicates ± standard deviation (mean ± SD). All samples were extracted using CA powders (0.1 g) and MAE conditions (20 s of radiation time, 450 W of microwave power, and 20 mL g−1 LS ratio). *Indicates that the extractive yield was significantly higher than those extracted using 80% (v/v) EtOH (p-value <0.05), which was analyzed using one-way analysis of variance, followed by Tukey's honest test.
