Comparative study of aqueous ultrasound-assisted extraction methods of bioactive compounds from Tarumã (Vitex megapotamica).
Vitex megapotamica (Tarumã) fruits are a potential source of phenolic compounds with relevant biological activities. This study compared ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) using a probe-type ultrasonic apparatus with conventional shaker extraction for the recovery of bioactive compounds from ripe Tarumã fruits. UAE e...
