| Abstract | Dehydrated Laminaria ochroleuca was processed by autohydrolysis with compressed hot water to extract bioactive compounds. Both the whole algae and individual fractions obtained (solid residue and liquor) were characterised to assess its functional properties for future innovative food applications. Puree-like systems were developed by combining ultrasonic and thermal technologies to maximise the antioxidant capacity and were evaluated by determining colour, texture, rheology, syneresis and the presence of bioactive compounds. Overall, the obtained results indicated that L. ochroleuca is a valuable resource that can be used as a whole or taking advantage of its bioactive fractions, in a concept of circular economy and sustainability. |
