Dietary fiber (soluble/insoluble) was recovered from pumpkin seed hulls using hydrothermal extraction. Process parameters were optimized, and a comprehensive profiling of recovered fiber fractions was performed. ABSTRACT Insoluble (IDF) and soluble dietary fiber (SDF) were recovered from pumpkin seed hulls (PSHs) using hydrothermal treatment ...

Stabilization Strategies for Catechins and Epicatechins: Recent Advances
Oxidation, epimerization, polymerization, and hydrolysis, driven by heat, pH, and oxygen, are pathways. Nano‐/microencapsulation maintains integrity with 70%–95% efficiency; biopolymer nanoparticles, starch/polysaccharide nanocarriers improve stability and dispersion. Lipid nanocarriers enhance bioavailability but raise oxidation risk.
