Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize the variables affecting the supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO2) extraction of non-polar compounds from Anastatica hierochuntica using the Central Composite Design technique (CCD). Independent variables were temperature (32–46 °C) and press...
