Ultrasound‐Assisted Extraction of Mucilage: An Approach for the Full Utilization of Ora‐Pro‐Nóbis Leaves

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Ora‐pro‐nóbis (OPN) leaves are remarkably high in mucilage content. Sustainable processing methods, such as ultrasound‐assisted extraction (UAE), can enhance the yield and functionality of OPN mucilage (OPNM). The resulting residue (OPNR) can be utilized to support circular economy approaches.
