Potential of Industrial Pineapple (<i>Ananas comosus</i> (L.) Merrill) By-Products as Aromatic and Antioxidant Sources

Pineapple is meanly commercially processed. However, it is a fruit that generates a high proportion of nonedible wastes, which are rich in antioxidant compounds and have a varied aromatic profile. These characteristics turn these by-products into potential agri-food waste that can be revalued and ap...
