In this study, the extraction conditions of several flavonoid compounds from Elsholtzia ciliata leaves were optimized by the response surface method (RSM). The experiment was arranged according to the Box - Behnken design with 15 experiments and was built based on an optimized process for the extraction of ethyl gallate (Y1), rutin (Y2), apigenin (Y3), and quercetin (Y4) with 3 factors of extraction temperature (X1), extraction time (X2) and pressure (X3). The conditions for optimizing the extraction process to obtain the highest content of some flavonoid compounds were at \(57^{\circ}\)C, 54 minutes, and 100 bar pressure. The experimental values at the optimal parameters of ethyl gallate, rutin, apigenin, and quercetin are 97.65 ± 0.32 mg/100g, 35.50 ± 0.25 mg/100g, 17.62 ± 0.15 mg/100g, and 27.66 ± 0.20 mg/100g, respectively.
