Peppermint Leaf Flavonoid Extraction Data with UHPLC-MS/MS Analysis

Experimental data from an ultrasound-assisted pectinase extraction process for flavonoids from peppermint leaves. The dataset includes results from response surface methodology optimization, yielding 12.87 g/100g DW total flavonoids, and UHPLC-MS/MS analysis identifying 38 compounds with quantitative data for four. The dataset was published by Bei Liu on figshare in 2026.

Use Cases

• Optimizing extraction parameters for plant-based compounds based on the described response surface methodology results.
• Analyzing the composition and concentration of specific flavonoids like hesperidin and diosmin based on the UHPLC-MS/MS quantitative data.
• Evaluating the correlation between extraction yield and antioxidant activity based on the provided DPPH and ABTS IC50 values.
• Benchmarking green extraction techniques (ultrasound, enzymatic) against traditional methods using the reported yield and conditions.

Strengths

• Includes specific quantitative results: a total flavonoid yield of 12.87 ± 0.04 g/100g DW.
• Provides detailed compound-level data, identifying 38 flavonoids and quantifying four (e.g., hesperidin at 892 ± 10 μg/g DW).
• Reports antioxidant activity metrics with IC50 values of 0.0241 mg/mL for DPPH and 0.0243 mg/mL for ABTS.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for statistical modeling.
• The dataset is small (13.4 MB), which may limit the scope of analysis.
