AB  - Research background. Due to numerous health-promoting properties, dandelion has been used in traditional medicine as a herbal remedy, but also as a food product. Dandelion health benefits are ascribed to the presence of different bioactive compounds in its tissues, among which polyphenols play a significant role. However, the low stability of polyphenols is a critical parameter for their successful implementation into products. Thus, their encapsulation using appropriate carrier vehicles is highlighted as an effective technique for their stabilization and protection. The aim of this study is to microencapsulate dandelion leaf extract using spray drying and different carrier materials for the first time. Experimental approach. In spray drying, low inlet temperature of 130 °C was employed to preserve sensitive dandelion polyphenols, while guar gum, gum arabic, inulin, maltodextrin, pectin and alginate were used as carriers. The influence of different carriers and their content on physicochemical, morphological and colour properties, polyphenolic content and encapsulation efficiency of polyphenols in dandelion powders was examined. Specific polyphenols were determined using HPLC-PAD analysis. Their release profiles and antioxidant capacity in simulated gastrointestinal conditions were also evaluated. Results and conclusions. Compared to plain dandelion powder, carrier-containing dandelion powders have favourably increased solubility, enhanced flow and cohesive properties, reduced particle size and prolonged release of polyphenols under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. Powders were characterized by low moisture content (~2–8 %) and high solubility (~92–97 %). Chicoric acid was the most abundant compound in dandelion powders. Pectin-dandelion powder showed to be the most effective for microencapsulation of polyphenols, especially for chicoric acid entrapment (74.4 %). Alginate-dandelion powder enabled the slowest gradual release of polyphenols. Novelty and scientific contribution. Spray drying at 130 °C and the applied carriers proved to be effective for microencapsulation of dandelion extract, where polyphenolic-rich dandelion powders, due to good physicochemical and encapsulation properties, could serve for the enrichment/production of different functional food products. Also, due to the lack of data on dandelion encapsulation, the obtained results could be of great interest for researchers in the encapsulation field, but also for food industry, especially in the field of instant powders. © 2022, University of Zagreb.

AB  - The modern food industry is facing the challenges associated with the production of high-quality food with enhanced safety, improvement of process efficiency and reduction of environmental pollution. The inclusion of bioactive compounds with potential health benefits, such as vitamins, probiotics, minerals, polyphenols, omega-3-fatty acids, and phytosterols into the foodstuff became the regular practice in contemporary industrial production of food. Most of these compounds are sensitive to the external conditions and influences that might cause the loss of functionality or degradation of an ingredient before it has time to act. In this sense, encapsulation, a process to entrap an active compound within a carrier material, gained great interest as a way to overcome the poor stability of bioactives and their susceptibility to adverse external factors during food 
processing, storage, and consumption. It provides a physical barrier between active compounds and the environment and can prevent reaction with other components in food products such as oxygen or water. Further on, it can be used to mask unpleasant feelings during eating, such as bitter taste and astringency of polyphenols. Encapsulation is also a useful tool to make delivery of bioactive molecules (e.g., antioxidants, minerals, vitamins, phytosterols) and living cells (e.g., probiotics) at the desired place or within an appropriate time possible. The paper gives an overview of different techniques and carrier materials commonly used in the food industry for encapsulation of bioactive molecules and presents several examples of encapsulated bioactives and cells developed in our laboratories  to be used for the production of value-added food.

AB  - The aim of this research was to examine the technological properties of beef emulsions in which fatty tissue was partially substituted with pumpkin seed oil (PSO) encapsulated in alginate or pectin matrix, and where phosphates (F treatments) were simultaneously substituted with shell powder (C treatments). Fat replacement (in the amount of 25%) mostly had no significant influence on pH, cooking loss, purge loss, fluid release under pressure, residual nitrite level, and texture properties. On the other hand, higher yellowness and hue angle were observed when backfat was replaced with encapsulated PSO, but only in treatments with phosphates. The use of shell powder as a phosphate replacer led to significantly higher pH values and thus to significantly higher residual nitrite level: 70.87-74.64 mg/kg (C treatments) is. 56.79-62.16 mg/kg (F treatments). The nitrite depletion rate during the seven-week storage was lower in C treatments. Moreover. higher lightness, yellowness and hue angle could be expected, as well as lower hardness, springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness. For the most part, seven-week storage had no influence on the observed technological properties, except on colour properties in which an opposite trend was observed in terms of yellowness - increase in treatments with phosphates and decrease in treatments with shell powder. Further research, which would include sensory analysis, should be conducted to determine how these altered colour and textural properties will be perceived by consumers.

AB  - The aim of the present research was to study the chemical profile of volatile and non-volatile compounds in freeze- and spray-dried oregano, thyme, sage, and rosemary as well as to study the gastrointestinal stability and the biological activity of the samples after encapsulation using two proteins (soy and whey). Chemical analysis was performed by HS-SPME/GC-MS and HPLC-PDA techniques. The antioxidant activity (FRAP, DPPH and ORAC assays) and HPLC-PDA analyses were performed before and after simulated two-phase digestion process (gastric and duodenal) using human gastrointestinal enzymes. The effect of protein carriers was depended on the plant matrix and the class of compound. Soy protein is useful for the protection of thymol and carvacrol content in thyme and the increase of the antioxidant activity of sage. Whey protein is useful for flavanols stability in all studied herbs before and after the duodenal digestive phase.

AB  - This work aimed to evaluate the nutritional and functional properties of rosehip from Serbia. In respect to that, the content of twenty-three elements in the rosehip along with the soil were determined by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy and the bioaccumulation factor (BAF) was calculated. The total dry matter, water activity, and the contents of vitamin C, total phenolics and flavonoids were determined. The antioxidant ability of fresh and dried samples was evaluated using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging assay. The obtained extracts were analyzed by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection and gas chromatography - mass spectrometry techniques. In addition, assessment of the impact of thermal treatment on the chemical composition of rosehip was observed. The study revealed that the most abundant elements in rosehip were K, Ca, Mg, P and S with 2963.0, 1820.0, 709.0, 495.0 and 289.8 mg/kg, respectively. The highest BAF values in the system rosehip/soil were for S, K and P. Contents of ascorbic acid, total phenolics, total flavonoids and the antioxidant activity were reduced after the drying process by 56.3%, 20.4%, 31.3%, 21.9%, respectively. Nevertheless, dried rosehip was still a rich source of bioactive compounds with significant antioxidant activity. The presented results support traditional use of rosehip as food with health and nutritional benefits.

AB  - Apple pomace flour (APF) with high content of dietary fibers (DF), total polyphenolics (TPCs) and flavonoids (TFCs) was produced at the industrial scale. Bulk and tapped density, swelling, water and oil holding capacity, solubility and hydration density of fine and coarse APF with average particle size 0.16 and 0.50 mm were compared. The effect of wheat flour substitution with 25%, 50% and 75% of fine and coarse APF was studied upon cookies production at the industrial scale and after one year of storage. Coarse APF performed better in respect to sensorial properties, content and retention of dietary compounds and antioxidant (AO) activity. The cookies with optimal share of coarse APF (50%) contained 21 g/100 g of DF and several times higher TPC, TFC as well as AO activity than control cookies, retained well health promoting compounds and maintained an intensely fruity aroma and crispy texture. They were acceptable for consumers according to the hedonic test.

Bulk and tapped density, swelling, water and oil holding capacity, solubility and hydration density of fine and coarse APF with average particle size 0.16 and 0.50 mm were compared. The effect of wheat flour substitution with 25%, 50% and 75% of fine and coarse APF was studied upon cookies production at the industrial scale and after one year of storage. Coarse APF performed better in respect to sensorial properties, content and retention of dietary compounds and antioxidant (AO) activity. The cookies with optimal share of coarse APF (50%) contained 21 g/100 g of DF and several times higher TPC, TFC as well as AO activity than control cookies, retained well health promoting compounds and maintained an intensely fruity aroma and crispy texture. They were acceptable for consumers according to the hedonic test.",

AB  - Aim: The aim of study was to encapsulate red pepper waste (RPW) bioactives and
monitor their stability in yogurt.
Methods: RPW extract was encapsulated in whey protein using spray and freeze drying
techniques. Physicochemical characteristics of encapsulates were evaluated, and better
encapsulates were used to develop functional yogurt. Retention of bioactives was
followed over 21 days of storage, and sensory analyses were assessed.
Results: Freeze dried encapsulates (FDE) showed better characteristics like water
activity, moisture content, solubility, flowing and colour properties, and therefore
incorporated in yogurt. Yogurt with FDE successfully retained carotenoids (71.43%)
and caused increasing of polyphenol retention (up to 123.73%). This yogurt exhibited
higher sensory and general acceptability scores compared to control sample. The
fortification of yogurts had positive influence on maintaining the initial number of lactic
acid bacteria during storage.
Conclusion: Freeze drying and utilization of pepper waste are efficient for functional
food development, with improved nutritional, colour and bioactive properties.

AB  - The study assessed the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of commonly used and commercially available essential oils as an alternative to synthetic preservatives. The plant sources were as follows: lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), tea tree (Melaleuca alternifolia), bergamot (Citrus bergamia) and peppermint (Mentha piperita). The antioxidant activity of essential oils was tested by the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) methods. The microdilution broth susceptibility assay revealed that lavender and bergamot essential oils were more efficient in inhibiting the bacterial growth than other tested oils, with the minimum inhibitory concentration of 5 mu g/mL. This study also reports the successful implementation of an electrostatic extrusion technique for encapsulating essential oils into alginate beads, which enables the essential oils to maintain their free radical scavenging ability over time.

AB  - Aim: The aim was to choose the optimal encapsulation system and to incorporate encapsulates loaded with essential oil into the ice cream as a model food product. Methods: Ca-alginate beads were produced by electrostatic extrusion process. Gelatine/alginate coacervates were processed with coacervation. Carnauba wax microparticles were produced using melt dispersion process. Morphological properties, chemical, and thermal stabilities of encapsulates were tested by SEM, FTIR spectral, and thermogravimetric analysis. Results: Alginate provided sufficient emulsion stability over 1 h. Ca-alginate showed higher encapsulation efficiency (EE) (98.4 +/- 4.3%) compared to carnauba wax (94.2 +/- 7.8%) and gelatine/alginate coacervates (13.2 +/- 1.2%). The presence of essential oil in all three types of encapsulates confirmed with FTIR. The encapsulation process ensured controlled release and thermal stability of the oil. Conclusions: Ca-alginate matrix as the most suitable for peppermint essential oil encapsulation. The sensory analysis showed that ice cream incorporating encapsulates is a promising system for the consumption of health beneficial peppermint essential oil.

AB  - In order to deactivate the health properties of bioactive compounds, they need to withstand the effects of food processing, their potential release from the food matrix, and remain bio-accessible in the gastrointestinal tract. Bio-actives from different plants are prone to oxidative degradation, and encapsulation is an effective method in improving their stability. In the present study, red pepper waste (RPW), a by-product of vegetable processing industry, was encapsulated in whey protein using spray and freeze-drying techniques. The aim was to evaluate the effects of in vitro gastrointestinal digestion on the release and bioactivity of encapsulated bio-actives, after each digestion step. The results showed that the release of phenolics and carotenoids, as well as antioxidants, anti-hyperglycemic, and anti-inflammatory activities are influenced by pH and intestinal fluid, with pH 7.5 exhibited at higher levels. There was a rapid initial release of carotenoids from whey protein matrices, while a more gradual increase of phenolics was observed, reaching around 50% for both encapsulates first at 6 h and 37 degrees C, and small intestine conditions. The encapsulation of RPW demonstrated a protective effect against pH changes and enzymatic activities along digestion, and contributed to the increase in bio-accessibility in the gut. Also, the results suggest that encapsulation is an efficient method for valorization of bio-actives from RPW, with improvements in nutrition, color, and bioactive properties.

AB  - Slaughterhouse blood represents a valuable source of hemoglobin, which can be used in the production of heme-iron based supplements for the prevention/treatment of iron-deficiency anemia. In order to obtain a stable solid-state formulation, the effect of maltose addition (30 %) on the stability and storage of bovine and porcine hemoglobin in powders obtained by spray-and freeze-drying (without maltose: Hb; with maltose: HbM) were investigated. Differential scanning calorimetry of spray- and freeze-dried powders indicated satisfying quality of the formulation prepared with maltose on dissolving back into solution. After two-year storage at room temperature (20 +/- 5 degrees C) in solid forms, protected from moisture and light, rehydrated spray- and freeze- dried HbM were red, while Hb were brown. Dynamic light scattering showed the presence of native hemoglobin monomers in rehydrated spray- and freeze- dried HbM, but their agglomerates in Hb samples. UV-Vis spectrophotometry confirmed an absence of significant hemoglobin denaturation and methemoglobin formation in HbM freeze-dried powders. In spray-dried HbM, an increased level of methemoglobin was detected. The results confirmed the stabilizing effect of maltose, and suggested its use in the production of long-term stable solid-state formulations of hemoglobin, along with drying processes optimization.

abstract = "Slaughterhouse blood represents a valuable source of hemoglobin, which can be used in the production of heme-iron based supplements for the prevention/treatment of iron-deficiency anemia. In order to obtain a stable solid-state formulation, the effect of maltose addition (30 %) on the stability and storage of bovine and porcine hemoglobin in powders obtained by spray-and freeze-drying (without maltose: Hb; with maltose: HbM) were investigated. Differential scanning calorimetry of spray- and freeze-dried powders indicated satisfying quality of the formulation prepared with maltose on dissolving back into solution. After two-year storage at room temperature (20 +/- 5 degrees C) in solid forms, protected from moisture and light, rehydrated spray- and freeze- dried HbM were red, while Hb were brown. Dynamic light scattering showed the presence of native hemoglobin monomers in rehydrated spray- and freeze- dried HbM, but their agglomerates in Hb samples. UV-Vis spectrophotometry confirmed an absence of significant hemoglobin denaturation and methemoglobin formation in HbM freeze-dried powders. In spray-dried HbM, an increased level of methemoglobin was detected. The results confirmed the stabilizing effect of maltose, and suggested its use in the production of long-term stable solid-state formulations of hemoglobin, along with drying processes optimization.",

AB  - Aim: Microencapsulation of chokeberry extracts was performed in order to improve functionality, stability, and bioavailability of extracted polyphenols. Methods: Chokeberry fruits and juice by-product (waste) extracts were spray-dried by using two carriers, maltodextrin and skimmed milk. Morphological and physicochemical characteristics of the obtained powders were analysed. In vitro simulated digestion model was used as an indicator of polyphenolics bioavailability. Results: The moisture content varied between 3.39 and 4.61%, zeta potential had negative values (35-39 mV), maltodetrin powders were smaller (4.27-5.12 mu m) compared to skimmed ones (8.50-11.01 mu m). All microparticles exhibited high encapsulation efficiency of total polyphenols and anthocyanins (73-97% and 63-96%, respectively). For both extract types, maltodextrin powders released higher phenolics content compared to skimmed milk. During in vitro digestion, maltodextrin exhibited a higher protective effect on both active compounds. Conclusion: Taking into account the obtained results, chokeberry polyphenols stability might be improved using spray drying technique, and maltodextrin showed better properties.

AB  - Agar-based composites with different Zn-carbonate mineral phase content were prepared by in situ mineralization and the solvent casting method. The mineral phase within the composite films was identified as hydrozincite, Zn-5(CO3)(2)(OH)(6). The presence of the mineral phase improved, both mechanical and water vapor permeability properties of the obtained composite films, in a concentration-dependent manner. The release of zinc ions from composite films is in accepted levels (up to 2.5%), and sufficient to provide complete inhibition growth of S. Aureus. The results of this study suggest that agar/Zn-carbonate composites could be potentially used as affordable, eco-friendly and functional materials with tunable properties for food packaging, agriculture or biomedical application. In situ procedure offers possibilities for tailoring the physical-chemical properties of composite films, by varying the Zn-mineral phase load.

AB  - Aim: The aim of this study was to encapsulate red pepper waste (RPW) bioactives and monitor their stability in yogurt. Methods: RPW extract was encapsulated in whey protein using spray and freeze-drying techniques. Physicochemical characteristics of encapsulates were evaluated, and better encapsulates were used to develop functional yogurt. Retention of bioactives was followed over 21?days of storage, and sensory analyses were assessed. Results: Freeze-dried encapsulates (FDE) showed better characteristics like water activity, moisture content, solubility, flowing and colour properties, and, therefore, incorporated in yogurt. Yogurt with FDE successfully retained carotenoids (71.43%) and caused increasing of polyphenol retention (up to 123.73%). This yogurt exhibited higher sensory and general acceptability scores compared to control sample. The fortification of yogurts had a positive influence on maintaining the initial number of lactic acid bacteria during storage. Conclusion: Freeze drying and utilisation of pepper waste are efficient for functional food development, with improved nutritional, colour and bioactive properties.

AB  - An increased environmental awareness has led to new trends in food industry, which are reflected in intensive studies on exploitation of fruit processing byproducts. Additionally, consumers' tendency to a healthy lifestyle has initiated the development of diverse functional food products. High amounts of by-products, such as peels, seeds, and stones, are discarded during fruit processing. It represents a problem both from the environmental and the economic point of view. On the other hand, the resulting residues are potential sources of numerous bioactive compounds. Therefore, fruit processing by-products such as substrates for the extraction of phenolic compounds, natural pigments, dietary fibers, protein isolates and oils attract great interest. These extracts have a great potential for the development of dietary supplements and new functional food products with beneficial health effects. However, bioactive compounds are susceptible to degradation, which represents a critical factor for their successful incorporation into food products. In this regard, the main challenge is to ensure the stability of bioactive compounds during processing, storage and in the gastrointestinal tract, i.e. to preserve their bioactivity and bioavailability. This challenge could be accomplished by the use of encapsulation. Namely, the formation of a physical barrier between an active compound and its surrounding is an effective way of protection. The present paper indicates the potential of by-products originating from the processing of apples, grapes, plums, raspberries and sour cherries as sources of bioactive compounds. It also points out the benefits that could be achieved by the encapsulation of bioactive compounds extracted from fruit processing by-products in order to develop new functional food products.

AB  - Due to its high content of phenolics, black chokeberry has been proposed as a health-promoting material, especially use of chokeberry extract as a food or pharmaceuticals. Chokeberry extract was spray-dried using gum Arabic as a carrier. The optimal conditions for the efficient microencapsulation of chokeberry extract using spray-drying technique have been investigated. The aim of our study was to obtain microparticles with the best potential to improve functionality and stability of extracted chokeberry polyphenols, and to investigate the possibility of microbeads to protect active compounds during simulated digestion process. Morphological characteristics of microbeads were analyzed using FTIR and SEM techniques. Zeta potential, particle size and moisture content were determined. Released total phenolics and total anthocyanins content as well as concentration of individual anthocyanins were quantified before and after digestion process. Microparticles exhibited high encapsulation efficiency up to 87%, and high content of released polyphenols was achieved. After in vitro simulated digestion phenolic compounds decreased by 11-24%, exhibited higher protective effect of gum Arabic. Our results showed that chokeberry microparticles obtained by spray drying method could be useful supplements or functional food. .

Microparticles exhibited high encapsulation efficiency up to 87%, and high content of released polyphenols was achieved. After in vitro simulated digestion phenolic compounds decreased by 11-24%, exhibited higher protective effect of gum Arabic. Our results showed that chokeberry microparticles obtained by spray drying method could be useful supplements or functional food. .",

AB  - Blackberry leaves have been used as a tea substituent in many herbal mixtures. Medicinal properties of this plant material are related to a high level of components with antioxidant activity, such as phenolic compounds. The aim of the research was to evaluate the effect of different extraction conditions on the content of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of blackberry leaves extracts. In this study, blackberry leaves extracts were produced by an aqueous extraction procedure. Different extraction conditions: water temperature (40 and 80 degrees C) and extraction time (15 and 30 min) were investigated. The blackberry leaves extract prepared by applying higher temperature (80 degrees C) and longer time (30 minutes) was characterized by the highest contents of total phenolic compounds (1534.15 mg gallic acid equivalents L-1), flavonoids (715 mg quercetin equivalents L-1) and flavan-3-ols (28.21 mg (+)-catechin L-1). Also, this extract expressed the highest antioxidant activity in terms of the ferric reducing ability of plasma (27.33 mmol Trolox equivalents L-1) and generation of 2,2'-azinobis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) radical cation (1.47 mmol Trolox equivalents L-1). The obtained results indicated that the produced extracts are a rich source of phenolic compounds with high antioxidant activity. Among investigated conditions, the use of water heated to higher temperature (80 degrees C) during prolonged time (30 min) is the most optimal procedure for the extraction of phenolic compounds with antioxidant activity from blackberry leaves. Further research is needed to determine the exact phenolic profile and their bioavailability, as well as to develop new functional food ingredients or nutraceuticals containing blackberry leaves extracts.

AB  - Black soybean coat is insufficiently valorised food production waste rich in anthocyanins. The goal of the study was to examine physicochemical properties of spray dried extract of black soybean coat in regard to carrier materials: maltodextrin, gum Arabic, and skimmed milk powder. Maltodextrin and gum Arabic-based microparticles were spherical and non-porous while skimmed milk powder-based were irregularly shaped. Low water activity of microparticles (0.31-0.33), good powders characteristics, high solubility (80.3-94.3%) and encapsulation yields (63.7-77.0%) were determined. All microparticles exhibited significant antioxidant capacity (243-386 mu molTE/g), good colour stability after three months of storage and antimicrobial activity. High content of total anthocyanins, with cyanidin-3-glucoside as predominant, were achieved. In vitro release of anthocyanins from microparticles was sustained, particularly from gum Arabic-based. These findings suggest that proposed simple eco-friendly extraction and microencapsulation procedures could serve as valuable tools for valorisation and conversion of black soybean coat into highly functional and stable food colourant.

AB  - Food related materials that are discharged worldwide are residues of high organic load generated through different stages of food’s life cycle, from agricultural production up to postharvest handling, processing, retail and consumption. Typically, these substances are characterized as ‘waste’, in line with the definition given from the Waste Framework Directive (Commission Directive 2006/12/EC): “Waste: a material which the holder discards or indented or is required to discard”. The global amount of food waste is enormous, accounting for about 1.3 billion tons per yr (Gustavsson et al. 2011). This situation has created concerns worldwide due to environmental and economical problems.

AB  - The goal of this study was to investigate the characteristics of grape skin extract (GSE) spray dried with different carriers: maltodextrin (MD), gum Arabic (GA) and skim milk powder (SMP). The grape skin extract was obtained from winery by-product of red grape variety Prokupac (Vitis vinifera L.). The morphology of the powders, their thermal, chemical and physical properties (water activity, bulk and tapped densities, solubility), as well as release studies in different pH conditions were analyzed. Total anthocyanin content and total phenolic content were determined by spectrophotometric methods. MD and GA-based microparticles were non-porous and spherical, while SMP-based ones were irregularly shaped. The process of spray drying Prokupac GSE using these three carriers produced powders with low water activity (0.24-0.28), good powder characteristics, high yields, and solubility higher than 90%. The obtained dissolution/release profiles indicated prolonged release of anthocyanins and phenolic compounds in different mediums, especially from GSE/GA microparticles. These results have shown that grape skin as the main by-product of wine production could be used as a source of natural colorants and bioactive compounds, and microencapsulation as a promising technique for the protection of these compounds, their stabilization in longer periods and prolonged release.

AB  - Introduction. The concern for obtaining some secondary metabolites with health-beneficial effects has initiated studies on valorization of by-products. In this sense, fruit processing by-products have attracted great interest as sources of bioactive compounds. Materials and methods. Pomaces of rasnberry and blackberry were obtained after juice separation. These byproducts were characterized in terms of total phenolic content (TPC) by Folin-Ciocalteu method and total monomeric anthocyanins content (TAC) by pH differential method. Also, antioxidant activity of pomaces against stable 1,1-dipheny1-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals was evaluated. Results and discussion. Pomace of blackberry was characterized by significantly higher TPC (10.1 mgGAE/g) and TAC (6 mg C3GE/g) compared to raspberry (8.2 and 3.6 mg/g, respectively). DPPH radical scavenging activity was similar, with slightly higher values in pomace of raspberry (11.7 mu molTrolox/g) than in blackberry (10.9 mu molTrolox/g). The total soluble solids was 9.3 degrees Bx in RP sample, significantly lower than in BP sample with value 14.5 degrees Bx. This study indicates that both, raspberry and blackberry pomaces, as wastes of juice production, could be used as a cheap source of bioactive compounds with strong antioxidant activity. Therefore, these pomaces should be considered as a raw material for production of valuable dietary supplements and natural colorants for development of new products with high value added. By-products of fruit processing could be used due to convenience, accessibility and low cost, as suitable way to increase health properties of food. The potential utilization of fruit pomaces could be the enrichment of different products such as bakery products, biscuits, cookies, paste, ice cream, fruit yogurts etc. Additionally, the potential applications of the ethanol used for bioactive compounds extraction in this study must be considered on the basis of the solvent percent choice, liquid-solid ratio, temperature, and time applied. Conclusion. Raspberry and blackberry pomaces, discarded during juice production, represent significant sources of bioactive compounds, such as phenolic antioxidants.

AB  - Carqueja (Pterospartum tridentatum) is an endemic species and various bioactive compounds have been identified in its aqueous extract. The aim of this study was to protect the natural antioxidants from the aqueous extract of carqueja by encapsulation in Ca-alginate microbeads and Ca-alginate microbeads containing 10% and 20% (w/v) of inulin. The microbeads produced by electrostatic extrusion technique had an average diameter from 625 mu m to 830 mu m depending on the portion of inulin. The sphericity factor of the hydrogel microbeads had values between 0.014 and 0.026, while freeze dried microbeads had irregular shape, especially those with no excipient. The reduction in microbeads size after freeze drying process (expressed as shrinkage factor) ranged from 0.338 (alginate microbeads with 20% (w/v) of inulin) to 0.523 (plain alginate microbeads). The expressed radical scavenging activity against ABTS and DPPH radicals was found to be between 30% and 40% for encapsulated extract, while the fresh extract showed around 47% and 57% of radical scavenging activity for ABTS and DPPH radicals, respectively. The correlation between antioxidant activity and the total phenolic content were found to be positive (in both assay methods, DPPH and ABTS), which indicate that the addition of inulin didn't have influence on antioxidant activity. The presence of inulin reduced stiffness of the hydrogel, and protected bead structure from collapse upon freeze-drying. Alginate-inulin beads are envisaged to be used for delivery of aqueous P. tridentatum extract in functional food products.

AB  - Immobilized cell technology has shown a significant promotional effect on the fermentation 
of alcoholic beverages such as beer, wine and cider. However, genetic, morphological and 
physiological alterations occurring in immobilized yeast cells impact on aroma formation 
during fermentation processes. The focus of this review is exploitation of existing knowledge
on biochemistry and the biological role of flavour production in yeast for the 
biotechnological production of aroma compounds of industrial importance by means of 
immobilized yeast. Various types of carrier materials and immobilization methods proposed 
for application in beer, wine, fruit wine, cider and mead production are presented. 
Engineering aspects with special emphasis on immobilized cell bioreactor design, operation 
and scale-up potential are also discussed. Ultimately, examples of products with improved 
quality properties within the alcoholic beverages are addressed together with identification 
and description of the future perspectives and scope for cell immobilization in fermentation 
processes.
