Tendencias tecnológicas para la extracción de compuestos bioactivos del aguacate criollo y su aplicación en matrices lipídicas

This study aimed to identify the trends in extraction methods of bioactive compounds with antioxidant capacity from avocado co-products and their application in lipid matrices. For this purpose, the scientific production by country over the last five years was analyzed, revealing that China, India, and Spain are leading contributors to this research topic. In Colombia, studies related to avocado have primarily focused on technologies such as ultrasound and pressurized liquids with NADES solvents. Likewise, the most cited journals and areas of knowledge correspond to agricultural and biological sciences, which have made significant progress through the use of microorganisms as biological pretreatment due to their large-scale potential across different industries. Finally, the thematic map made it possible to identify that one of the most favorable alternatives to improve the yields and quality of the extractives is the combined use of assisted technologies such as electric fields, ultrasound, and enzymes enabling the improvement of oxidative stability and nutritional value of certain food matrices such as meat or bakery products through the incorporation of oleogels as fat substitutes.
