Persimmon has been associated to potential health benefits due to its high levels of bioactive compounds like polyphenols, carotenoids and fibers. Its production and consumption has been expanding in Brazil, making it the focus of a great deal of researches. These studies have been conducted to overcome the post-harvested losses and to add value to the food production chain. Valuation strategies for this chain include the diversification of products across the world to develop functional foods and natural ingredients. Since carotenoids are bioactive compounds that present low bioavailability, the knowledge of the steps limiting their bioavailability is mandatory for the design of functional foods/ingredients. The type of food processing and its strategies, as well as carotenoid delivery systems, can drive to an enhanced carotenoid bioavailability in the final product. The aim of this work was to obtain a carotenoids concentrate with low soluble solids content from persimmon, determining the content and bioaccessibility of carotenoids in the final product. Persimmon pulp was obtained from fresh fruits.
