CO supercritical extraction and microencapsulation of oleoresins from rosehip fruits for getting powders with multiple applications.

The supercritical fluids extraction (SFE) was used to extract the oleoresins from rosehip, followed by an in-depth phytochemical analysis and the development of two design-customized powders for different food and pharmaceutical applications. The SFE experiments allowed obtaining an oleoresins extraction yield of 11.85%.

Advanced Composites Based on Sea Buckthorn Carotenoids for Mayonnaise Enrichment.

This study aimed at the extraction and encapsulation of the carotenoids from sea buckthorn fruits and obtaining value-added mayonnaise. First, the carotenoids from sea buckthorn fruits were extracted using ultrasound-assisted extraction. Then, they were microencapsulated through complex coacervation and freeze-drying techniques using different wall material combinations.

Eggplant Peels as a Valuable Source of Anthocyanins: Extraction, Thermal Stability and Biological Activities.

This study aimed to use eggplant peels as a potential source of anthocyanins with biological activities. Two different extraction methods were tested in order to obtain extracts with a high anthocyanin content. The selected methods were the solid-liquid extraction (SLE) and ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) methods.
