Eutectic solvent carotenoid extraction: NaturaRecent Research Landscape

Low extraction yields and impurity carryover in carotenoid processing increase downstream refining costs. These methods utilize controlled phase separation and solvent ratios to isolate high-purity crystalline esters.

What technical problems is Natura addressing in Eutectic solvent carotenoid extraction?

Agricultural byproduct waste accumulation

(54)evidences

Natural extracts from cacao and monk fruit often suffer from poor solubility and bioavailability in aqueous systems. Overcoming these physical limitations is necessary to achieve effective flavor delivery and functional ingredient stability.

Low extractable purity levels

(11)evidences

Natural carotenoid extracts suffer from high impurity levels and rapid oxidative degradation. Achieving high-purity crystalline or esterified forms prevents product instability and improves bioavailability.
