<p>### Topic<br>**Topic** Optimization of Extraction Techniques for Bioactive Compounds from Food Sources<br><br>### Abstract
<br>This study aims to optimize extraction techniques for the efficient recovery of bioactive compounds from various food sources. Bioactive compounds, such as polyphenols, flavonoids, and antioxidants, have been associated with numerous health benefits, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer properties. However, their extraction from food matrices can be challenging due to factors such as matrix complexity, compound stability, and extraction efficiency. This research will systematically evaluate different extraction methods, including conventional solvent extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, supercritical fluid extraction, and microwave-assisted extraction, to determine the most effective approach for maximizing yield and maintaining compound integrity. The findings of this study will contribute to the development of improved extraction protocols for obtaining bioactive compounds from food sources, with potential applications in functional food, nutraceutical, and pharmaceutical industries.<br><br><br></p>
