Water has been explored as a green extraction agent for isoflavone extraction from okara. First, subcritical water (subW) was explored using two different okaras: (1) washed and dried (OKW) and (2) non-pretreated (OKC). Genistein family was the most abundant, with very low quantities in the glycitein family. Kinetic data revealed interconversion of malonyl-glycosides to β-glycosides in subW, with increasing degradation rate constants for all isoflavones with temperature. A maximum of 1229 μg isoflavone/g of dried okara was obtained at 120 °C after 30 min for OKC. Microwave (MAE) and ultrasound (UAE) technologies achieved 72.8 % and 75.4 %, of the yield of subW. Productivity at the maximum was of 41.0, 82.5 and 92.8 μg isoflavone/g dry okara min for subW, MAE, UAE. However, higher fraction of the more bioavailable forms β-glycoside + aglycone was obtained by subW.
