The aim of this PhD project is to recover bioactive compunds, mainly phenolic compounds, from agro-food by-products to obtain commercial formulations for potential food applications. The activity will be carried out with wine making by-products obtained from different red and white grape varieties. Experiments will deal with extracts obtaining by solvent-extraction, extracts characterization and application of different purification techniques with the purpose of producing standardized extracts. Optimization of encapsulation process by spray-drying will also be investigated to produce suitable extract formulations for different food applications.

Abstract
The aim of this PhD project is to recover bioactive compunds, mainly phenolic compounds, from agro-food by-products to obtain commercial formulations for potential food applications. The activity will be carried out with wine making by-products obtained from different red and white grape varieties. Experiments will deal with extracts obtaining by solvent-extraction, extracts characterization and application of different purification techniques with the purpose of producing standardized extracts. Optimization of encapsulation process by spray-drying will also be investigated to produce suitable extract formulations for different food applications.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
