Bioactive Antioxidants from Agri-Food Wastes, 2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue aims to deepen the knowledge about the applications of bioactive antioxidants derived from agri-food wastes. In the first edition, mainly production techniques were covered, while in this Issue we aim to focus on the application of bioactives to food and nutraceutics, along with their impact on health.

The use of various matrixes for the delivery of bioactives to the final product could impact their activity; therefore, releasing mechanisms and metabolic pathways will be also taken into account. Since one third of food is wasted globally, there is more than ever the need for the valorization of wasted products.

In addition, there is a research stream for the use of biobased materials used for the preservation of bioactive rich food. Preservation could be achieved either by the use of enriched packaging materials, by their stabilization directly in the product, or in their synergy.

Let’s discover what the topics of interest are of the latest scientific findings using agri-food waste.
