Abstract: Theoptimal extraction condition of dried Phaseolus
vulgaris powderwas studied. The three independent variables are raw
material concentration, shaking and centrifugaltime. The dependent
variables are both yield percentage of crude extract and alphaamylase
enzyme inhibition activity. The experimental design was
based on box-behnkendesign. Highest yield percentage of crude
extract could get from extraction condition at concentration of 1, 0,1,
concentration of 0.15 M ,extraction time for 2hour, and
separationtime for60 min. Moreover, the crude extract with highest
alpha-amylase enzyme inhibition activityoccurred by extraction
condition at concentration of 0.10 M, extraction time for 2 min, and
separation time for 45 min
