The food matrix had a significant influence on the concentration
of phenolic compounds (p < 0.05). SB was the beverage
which contained the highest concentration of total phenolic
acids and flavonoids, as well as TPC (by HPLC and by F-C), followed
by MB and WB. However,TPC by F-C were not statistically
different in MB and WB products. These results suggest that
the addition of soymilk or milk to blended fruit juices favoured
the concentration of these constituents, in spite of the
