Microencapsulation of Betalains Extracted from Garambullo (<i>Myrtillocactus geometrizans</i>) to Produce Active Chitosan–Polyvinyl Alcohol Films with Delayed Release of Bioactive Compounds

Microencapsulation of Betalains Extracted from Garambullo (<i>Myrtillocactus geometrizans</i>) to Produce Active Chitosan–Polyvinyl Alcohol Films with Delayed Release of Bioactive Compounds

Garambullo is a plant with little industrial application. However, garambullo contains betalains, photosensitive phytochemical compounds, which through microencapsulation can be used in chitosan–polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) films for application in tomato coatings. These biopackages were characterized b...
