          Abstract

          As pesquisas com licopeno têm sido intensificadas uma vez que o consumo de alimentos ricos neste caroteno, como tomate e seus produtos, tem sido associado com o menor risco de desenvolvimento de câncer de próstata. Os objetivos deste trabalho foram (1) desenvolver e otimizar um método para extração de licopeno a partir de descarte de tomate, (2) utilizar este método na obtenção de licopeno a partir de diferentes coletas de tomate, (3) obter cristais de licopeno puro e (4) acompanhar o processo de purificação de licopeno por cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência em coluna C30. O método desenvolvido e otimizado através de planejamento experimental fatorial para a obtenção de licopeno consistiu de uma etapa preliminar para retirada de água do tomate, com 4 extrações de 30 minutos, cada uma com 30mL de etanol, seguido por 4 extrações de 120 minutos com acetato de etila e relação massa/volume de 1:0,7. O teor de carotenóides médio (calculado como licopeno) obtido de 6 lotes de tomate foi de 59,2 ± 21,8µg/g. Através de duas cristalizações sucessivas obteve-se licopeno com 98% de pureza. A análise por CLAE mostrou a presença de traços dos isômeros 5-cis, 5-cis, 5'-cis- e 13-cis-licopeno no cristal de licopeno.

          Over the past few years, research regarding lycopene has intensified since the consumption of lycopene rich foods such as tomato and tomato products has been associated with reduced risks of developing prostrate cancer. Thus the objectives of this research were (1) develop and optimise methodology for the extraction of lycopene from tomato waste, (2) use the methodology to obtain lycopene from different tomato batches, (3) produce high purity lycopene crystals and (4) follow the purification process of lycopene using high performance liquid chromatography on a C30 column. The method developed to obtain lycopene from tomato residue, and optimised using a factorial experimental design, consisted of a preliminary water removal step with four 30-minute extractions, each with 30mL ethanol, followed by four 120-minute extractions with ethyl acetate, each extraction with a mass/volume ratio of 1:0.7. The mean carotenoid content (calculated as lycopene), obtained from 6 tomato pickings, was 59.2 ± 21.8µg/g. Lycopene with 98% purity was obtained from two successive crystallisation processes. HPLC analysis showed the presence of traces of the 5-cis-, 5-cis,5'-cis- and 13-cis-lycopene isomers in the lycopene crystal.

              Selective enzyme-mediated extraction of capsaicinoids and caratenoids from chili guajillo puya (Capsicum annum L.) using ethanol as solvent.

              The selective extraction of capsaicinoids and carotenoids from chili guajillo "puya" flour was studied. When ethanol was used as solvent, 80% of capsaicinoids and 73% of carotenoids were extracted, representing an interesting alternative for the substitution of hexane in industrial processes. Additionally, when the flour was pretreated with enzymes that break the cell wall and then dried, extraction in ethanol increased to 11 and 7% for carotenoid and capsaicinoid, respectively. A selective two-stage extraction process after the treatment with enzymes is proposed. The first step uses 30% (v/v) ethanol and releases up to 60% of the initial capsaicinoids, and the second extraction step with industrial ethanol permits the recovery of 83% of carotenoids present in the flour.
