Jabuticaba (Myrciaria jabuticaba (Vell.) Berg) is a typical Brazilian fruit, source of phenolic compounds and anthocyanins mainly concentrated in the peel. The low stability of these compounds requires new extraction and encapsulation techniques to improve and expand its applicability in the food and pharmaceutical industry. This thesis aimed to find the best combination of the studied variables for better extraction of phenolic compounds from jabuticaba peel powder using high-intensity ultrasoundassisted extraction and investigate the effects of fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and inulin with different degrees of polymerization (DP) on the properties of pectin-based structured systems and their performance as encapsulating matrices for the optimized extract. The effects of ultrasound intensity (1.1, 3.7, 7.3, and 13.0 W/cm 2 ) and solvent composition concerning water/ethanol ratio (0, 25, 50, 75, and 100 g water/100 g) were examined using a full factorial experimental design (4 × 5), and the maximum recovery of bioactive compounds was at an ultrasound intensity of 3.7 W/cm² and 50 g water/100 g, demonstrating that the interaction between the parameters studied has a strong influence on the extraction efficiency of the groups of compounds studied and on their antioxidant potential. The identification and quantification of the phenolic compounds present in the optimized extract were made by UPLC/DAD/ESI-MS n analysis, and 58 phenolic compounds were tentatively identified. The antioxidant capacity against lipid oxidation and the bioaccessibility of the anthocyanins present in the extract were evaluated in vitro by a gastrointestinal digestion model concerning a Western-type diet.Both extract concentrations used (1 and 5 mg/mL) were able to inhibit lipid oxidation, largely decreasing the formation of the analyzed lipid oxidation markers (conjugated dienes and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal). The assays also showed high bioaccessibility of anthocyanins, especially when the highest concentration was evaluated, however, bioaccessible delphinidin-3-O-glucoside was not detected at the lowest concentration.The combination of pectin and inulin with different DP demonstrated to be a promising encapsulating system for jabuticaba peel polyphenols with potential use as functional and structural food ingredient. The pectin-based encapsulating system and the pectinbased encapsulating system with the addition of inulin with DP ≥ 23 were the most efficient in protecting the jabuticaba peel extract, exhibiting the best results for the stability of the antioxidant capacity.
