ABSTRACT

Secondary metabolites in the form of phenolic compounds are known to be potent functional compounds which are not consumed for the energy purposes rather consumed for medicinal properties. In today’s world, where consumer needs are more inclined toward the natural products, there is a deep role of advanced processing techniques which can restore the maximum amount of functional compounds in the processed products.
