In this work, a comparison between the extracts of dehydrated yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) and bio-waste of yerba mate leaves from the Brazilian industry was made. The incorporation of the functional extract as a preservative/functional ingredient in a pastry product (pancakes) was tested. The individual profile of phenolic compounds was determined by HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS, and the bioactive potential was assesse...
Ilex paraguariensis A. St. -Hil. (yerba mate) is a tree widely cultivated in South America, and commonly used for the production of beverages such as chimarrão, tereré, and mate tea. The bioactive composition of its leaves has been associated with many benefít health effects for the human bodyl11. It is estintated that more than a Jiter ofthese drinks are consumed daily by approximately 30% of the South America...
The use of agro-industrial wastes translates into an advantageous opportunity for the development of by-products [1]. Ilex paraguariensis A. ST. HIL. (yerba mate) is a tree widely cultivated and appreciated with a chemical composition that identifies several beneficial properties to the human body [2]. In this work, a comparison between the extracts of dehydrated yerba mate (EMNP) and bio-waste (EMP) leaves fro...
O sector agroalimentar é um dos sectores onde se verifica uma elevada produção de resíduos, resultantes do processamento ou de perdas na cadeia produtiva. O aproveitamento destes resíduos traduz-se numa oportunidade vantajosa de desenvolvimento de subprodutos, assim como, na agregação de valor acrescentado, através da utilização sustentável desses resíduos. Relativamente aos três tipos de panquecas desenvolvida...
