description

Considering a large number of variations in the chemical structures of bioactive compounds (BACs) that are valuable to humans and a large number of their sources, it is necessary to build a standard and integrated extraction and analytical approaches for obtaining these compounds. From this perspective, the main purpose of this Special Issue of Food Research International was to publish research related to the extractions with data about isolation of BACs from plant matrices for human nutrition. This Special Issue includes both, conventional and innovative extraction techniques, highlighting their characteristics and advantages in relation to the target matrix. Many of presented works contain relevant scientific information about development of extraction methods that have potential for the industrial applications.
