The article is devoted to the optimization of technological regimes for the extraction of plant bioresources (tea raw materials and cultivated plants of the Far East). Using the method of mathematical modeling, the dependences of the mass fraction of soluble solids and functional ingredients of an antioxidant orientation (vitamin C and flavonoids) on the determining technological factors (hydraulic modulus, duration of exposure and temperature of the extractant) that affect the dynamics of the process of extraction of biologically active substances were studied.
Based on the processing of the experimental results, polynomial equations of the second degree are obtained, which adequately describe the mathematical dependence. Optimal extraction parameters for green tea, purple echinacea Echinaceae purpurea L. (herb) and peppermint Menthae piperitaе L. (leaves) were experimentally established. The antioxidant activity of the obtained extracts was studied. A commodity assessment of the quality of extracts was carried out and compositions of plant extracts used in the technology of functional food products were developed.
