What is it about?
Blueberry juice production in Chile and other countries generates large volumes of a valuable solid waste: pomase, which contain the skin, seeds and other parts of the fruit. each one of them has valuable nutrients and bioactive compounds such as protein, lipids, fiver and antixidant polyphenols. In this work we were able to find the optimun condicitons to extracte large percentages of the polyphenols available in this waste material
