Fucoxanthin is a pigment present in diverse marine organisms such as micro and macro-algae. The most relevant source of fucoxanthin has been described to be the group brown macroalgae, also known Phaeophyceae. presence fucoxanthin, xanthophyll, found an accessory chloroplasts algae responsible for providing them their characteristic color. market size this carotenoid, expected reach US$ 120 million by 2022, reflects its industrial importance, especially remarkable food or cosmetic...
Microalgae, as a photosynthetic autotrophic organism, contain variety of bioactive compounds, including lipids, proteins, polysaccharides, which have been applied in food, medicine, and fuel industries, among others. Microalgae are considered good source marine lipids due to their high content unsaturated fatty acid (UFA) can be used supplement/replacement for fish-based oil. The concentration docosahexaenoic (DHA) eicosapentaenoic acids (EPA) microalgae results important physiological...
Currently, agricultural production generates large amounts of organic waste, both from the maintenance farms and crops (agricultural wastes) industrialization product (food industry waste). In case Actinidia cultivation, waste groups together leaves, flowers, stems roots while food by-products are represented by discarded fruits, skin seeds. All these matrices now underexploited so, they can be revalued as a natural source ingredients to applied in food, cosmetic or pharmaceutical...
