Bioaccessibility and Cellular Uptake of Carotenoids Extracted from <i>Bactris gasipaes</i> Fruit: Differences between Conventional and Ionic Liquid-Mediated Extraction

Bioaccessibility and Cellular Uptake of Carotenoids Extracted from <i>Bactris gasipaes</i> Fruit: Differences between Conventional and Ionic Liquid-Mediated Extraction

Currently, on an industrial scale, synthetic colorants are used in many fields, as well as those extracted with conventional organic solvents (COSs), leading to several environmental issues. Therefore, we developed a sustainable extraction and purification method mediated by ionic liquids (IL), whic...
