Evaluation of extraction methods for determination of phenolic compounds, organic acids and sugars in lingonberries (Vaccinium vitis-idaea)
Aaby, Kjersti; Amundsen, Mathias (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2023)Health benefits of lingonberries (Vaccinium vitis-idaea) have been linked to phenolic compounds, whereas organic acids and sugars are important for the taste of the berries. Contents of these compounds combined can be used to determine lingonberry quality. Extraction is a critical step in analyses, and many different methods have been used. The aim of the study was to evaluate different ... -
The stability of phenolic compounds and the colour of lingonberry juice with the addition of different sweeteners during thermal treatment and storage
Aaby, Kjersti; Amundsen, Mathias (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-05-03)Lingonberries (Vaccinium vitis-idaea L.) are rich in phenolic compounds associated with several health benefits. The berries are also astringent, sour, and bitter and the addition of a sweetener is necessary to increase the palatability of lingonberry products. The addition of a sweetener may, however, affect the stability of phenolic compounds in the product. The aim of this study was thus to ...
