Abstract
PLE using DES aqueous solutions is an eco-friendly method for anthocyanin recovery.
Pressurized DES solutions can be used to valorize the jaboticaba by-product.
DES (ChCl:Pro and ChCl:Ma) solutions had yields 50% higher than conventional solvents.
Recovered extracts showed antioxidant, anti-diabetic, and anti-obesity potential.
Pressurized ChCl:Ma solution maintained the color and bioactivity of the extracts.
Deep eutectic solvents (DES) are emergent solvents with high extractability of bioactive compounds. Therefore, anthocyanin rich-fractions were recovered from jaboticaba peels by combining aqueous solutions of DES and pressurized liquid extraction (PLE). The extraction occurred at 10 MPa, 12 min, with conditions optimized through response surface methodology: 47% DES concentration, 90 °C, and 5.3 mL/min flow rate. PLE with different DES (choline chloride combined with propylene glycol or malic acid) solutions were compared to conventional solvents (water and acidified water) concerning yield, thermostability, antioxidant, anti-diabetic, and anti-obesity activities. DES solutions presented anthocyanin yields up to 50% higher than conventional solvents. ChCl:Ma, with the highest anthocyanin stability (Ea = 77.5 kJ.mol−1), was a promising solvent concerning color, anti-diabetic and anti-obesity potential. Environmental analysis by Green Certificate and EcoScale indicated PLE with DES solutions is a green and efficient approach to recover anthocyanin from jaboticaba peel, providing useful extracts.
