Abstract

Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanofibers (FWater) and enriched with aqueous extracts of acai pulp (FAP), cocoa shell (FCS), jabuticaba peels (FJP) and carrot residue (FCR) were produced by solution blow spinning (SBS) and applied to strawberries. Nanofibers presented uniform morphology with diameters...

Abstract

Açai, a fruit typical of Amazonia in Brazil, is consumed due to beneficial health effects. Aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) based on ethanol (28% w/w) and ammonium sulfate (17.5% w/w) were employed in the partitioning of anthocyanins from açai. Experiments, applying 50 mL equilibrium cells and a...
