Environmentally friendly natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) have been shown to efficiently extract a wide range of phenolic compounds from virgin olive oil (VOO). The objective of this work was to optimize the yield of olive oil phenols extracted by NADES based on xylitol/choline choride (Xyl/ChCl). Different extraction and recovery...

Thermal treatments are the latest developments in the olive oil biorefinery industry to extract bioactive compounds from its by-products, mainly the alperujo. To reach these goals and reduce energy consumption the utilization of deep eutectic solvents has been studied. An initial screening led to define a eutectic mix of choline chloride,...

The application of an industrial process based on the hydrothermal treatment of 160 °C/60 min of alperujo, a by-product of olive oil extraction, allows the formation of a liquid phase containing a high concentration of phenolic and secoiridoid compounds. Ethyl acetate was used to extract these phenolic compounds from the aqueous matrix. In this...

The natural antioxidant hydroxytyrosol (HT) was used to functionalize a strawberry puree. The effect of the antioxidant on the stability of the two bioactive forms of vitamin C (ascorbic acid-AA and dehydroascorbic acid-DHAA) in strawberry puree stored at 4 ◦C, compared with the effect on a model system of AA in water, was investigated. In the...

The current management of alperujo as the main solid by-product from the two-phase olive oil extraction system has led to the appearance of a new liquid effluent that until now was treated together with the alperujo itself. The composition and antioxidant properties of its bioactive components at different depths of the pond were studied using...

The aim of this study was to prepare a complex between the olive phenolic compounds, hydroxytyrosol (HT), 3,4-dihydroxyphenylglycol (DHPG) and their mixture, with the soluble and insoluble dietary fiber of apple cell wall. A strong interaction between phenols and the apple cell wall occurred during the drying phase and it was confirmed by...
