Effect of high-intensity ultrasound specific energy on the bixin and geranylgeraniol recovery from defatted annatto seeds

Annatto (Bixa orellana L.) seeds are rich in bioactive compounds as bixin, an important carotenoid used as a colorant, and geranylgeraniol, a terpenic compound which presents several biological activities as apoptosis of carcinogen cells. The extraction of these bioactive compounds using clean emerg...
