Popis:	The objective of this study was to investigate the efficiency of phenolic extraction and antioxidant activity from sesame cake using water extraction method and to evaluate the possibility of employing microwave irradiation to improve the extraction yield. The result showed that extraction temperature had major influence on total phenolic content and antioxidant activities of the extracts, whereas extraction time was found to be insignificant. The optimum extraction condition recommended were 90oC for 30 min in this research. Furthermore, microwave pre-treatment at 120 s could have significantly positive influence on the overall extraction yield, especially the total phenolics and antioxidants based on FRAP assay. Therefore, the obtained results suggest that sesame aqueous extracts could be a source of antioxidants with more feasible applications in food as well as other industries.
