Antioxidant Activity of Avocado Seed Extract: A Systematic Review of Extraction Methods

The extraction method, solvent type, concentration, and various other factors highly influence the extraction of antioxidants from avocado seeds. This study explores the impact of these variables on the yield and bioactivity of bioactive compounds, with a particular focus on the antioxidant capacity. Ethanol extraction, especially at specific concentrations, has demonstrated the highest effectiveness in isolating compounds with significant antioxidant properties, as evidenced by low IC50 values from multiple studies.
