Article Synopsis
  • A new method combining high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) and digital image analysis was developed for effectively monitoring and optimizing extraction processes at a low cost.
  • Four multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques were compared to analyze the extraction of compounds from green tea leaves, finding that Derringer's desirability, TOPSIS, and PROMETHEE-2 produced consistent rankings for the extracts.
  • The study concluded that optimal extraction conditions were found using moderate ethanol (73%) and extraction times (46 min), highlighting the value of MCDM algorithms in managing multiple chromatographic responses in extraction optimization.

A new method for efficiently selecting polypotent natural products is proposed in this study. The method involves using effect-directed HPTLC data and multiobjective optimization algorithms to extract chromatographic signals from HPTLC bioassay images. Three different multiobjective optimization methods, namely Derringer's desirability approach, Technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS), and Sum of ranking differences (SRD), were applied to the chromatographic signals.

, commonly known as the button mushroom, has attracted attention for its biological properties, including antimicrobial activities. Here, we evaluated the efficacy of ethanolic and acetonic extracts from white and brown against different bacterial strains, including antibiotic-resistant strains. Bioautography and principal component analysis identified the most active antibacterial compounds for each of the tested bacteria and indicated the main markers responsible for the strain-specific effects.
