The use of acid whey as a biological-based solvent may be an innovative and sustainable strategy to add value to agro-industrial by-products. This study assessed acid whey as a solvent for extracting anthocyanins from discarded red cabbage leaves. Methods such as Heating and Stirring Extraction (HSE), Ultrasound-Assisted Extraction (UAE), and Pressurized Liquid Extraction (PLE) were compared using acid whey or ...
This study aimed at investigating the chemical composition and a selected group of bioactivities of jatoba (Hymenaea courbaril L.) pod residue. An aqueous extract (deionized water; AE) and a hydroethanolic extract (ethanol: deionized water, 70:30 v/v; ETOH) were obtained via maceration. Ten phenolic compounds were characterized via LC-DAD-ESI/MSn: seven procyanidins, two quercetin derivatives and one taxifolin ...
