FAQ

  • QWhich countries export peanuts?
    AArgentina, USA, China, India, Vietnam, and some African countries are significant exporters. Although peanuts are widely consumed as snack and confectionary products, more than 50 % of the peanut world production is usually crushed for oil, peanut paste and peanut butter production.
  • QHow much TPC does a peanut have?
    AConsidering the named organic solvents (and their mixtures with water), methods and extraction conditions, as well as variations attributable to the peanut variety, it have been reported TPC ranging between 120 and 170 mg/g PS.
  • QHow can I know how my order is being done?
    AWe will inspect and test all items in order to avoid damage and missing parts before shipping. The detailed inspection pictures of the order will be sent to you for your confirmation before delivery.
  • QDo ozonation treatments affect Phenolic Composition in Peanuts?
    AOzonation treatments have been used to degrade aflatoxins in peanuts. However, they have found to affect phenolic composition and decrease the antioxidant capacities.
  • QAre phenolic extracts good for peanuts?
    AStudies from Nepote et al., 2004, Christman et al., 2018 report the incorporation of PS phenolic extracts into flavoured coatings for peanuts. Both studies show the benefits of improved quality (increased oxidative stability, longer shelf-life) and good consumer acceptance of PS extract-coated peanuts.
  • QWhere do peanut skin phenolics come from?
    AThey are allocated mostly in the seed coat (skin), an industrial waste with minor and undervalued applications. In the last few years, a considerable amount of scientific knowledge about extraction, composition, bioactivities and health benefits of peanut skin phenolics has been generated.
  • QWhich solvent is best for extraction of PS phenolics?
    ADue to its physicochemical properties, low cost, availability and safety reasons, water could be the ideal solvent for extraction of PS phenolics. However, an important factor that should be considered is the solvent polarity.
