Nanoencapsulation of hydrophobic phytochemicals using poly (dl-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) for antioxidant and antimicrobial delivery applications: Guabiroba fruit (Campomanesia xanthocarpa O. Berg) study

LWT - Food Science and Technology, 2015
AbstractPrevious studies have reported antioxidant and antimicrobial activity of guabiroba extract (GE), which is associated to its polyphenolic and carotenoid contents. Encapsulation using polymeric materials could improve GE application, bioavailability, and stability in foods and pharmaceuticals.

Physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities of marula fruit (Sclerocarya birrea subsp. Caffra) steamed and boiled before juice extraction. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr, 2023
This study showed the importance of processing on nutritional qualities of marula fruit juice. The boiling and steaming decrease the vitamin C content of the juice when compared to unprocessed marula fruit. Steaming of the fruit (Marula) before juicing increases the total phenolic content and antioxidant activities of the marula fruit juice.

The Addition of Concentrated Cold-Pressed Guabiroba Juice to Yogurts: Effects on the Physicochemical Analyses, Antioxidant Activity, Carotenoid Content, Total Phenolic Compounds, and Mineral Profile

Processes
Cold-pressed guabiroba juice was subjected to block freeze concentration. The best process efficiency (PE) was obtained for the first stage of freeze concentration compared to the second stage (C2; 57.47%). Yogurt formulations were carried out with the concentrated juice from stage 1 (C1) (0, 10% (I10), and 15% (I15)).
