Nevertheless, the product can be used for the extraction of lycopene, as the outward appearance has no effect on the nutrient content. Watermelon is the fruit that contains more water, the pink color of its pulp is due to the presence of the pigment lycopene, a substance with antioxidant capacity. Therefore the aim of this study was to extract lycopene from watermelon for rejection for food application. A study on watermelon crops, post harvest handling on the production to find the closest points to stock up on fruit and also know the seasonal period of the fruit in Ecuador on the pigment to be extracted. Existing methods for extracting lycopene to choose one according to the possibilities available in the environment, taking into account a process without levels of chemical contaminants, mainly organic solvents that affect people, and then to determine their performance and how to purify if necessary. |
