“…UAE experiments were designed to understand the effect of various processing parameters like temperature, sonication time, power, and solid solvent ratio on the extraction efficiency of tea [ 39 , 122 , 131 , 134 , 140 , 141 , 144 , 146 , 147 ]. UAE was explored as an extraction method to extract compounds like catechins [ 134 , 135 , 138 , 139 , 142 , 143 ], caffeine [ 136 , 142 , 143 ], tannic acid [ 148 ], oil [ 131 ], flavonoids [ 141 ], volatile compounds [ 137 ], theophylline and theobromine [ 136 ], theaflavins [ 138 ], antioxidant polyphenols [ 31 , 140 ], total phenolic content [ 149 ], and antioxidant capacity [ 138 ] of tea extracts were analyzed with UAE. Among these, the catechins were found to be more stable in deep eutectic solvent (DES) extracts than in any other solvents (e.g., water, methanol, and ethanol) used for the extraction process [ 139 ].…”
