Given this, it was proposed initially to perform a study of the stability of the capsaicinoids present in a previously prepared extract.
This involved subjecting a mixture of capsaicinoids to the action of microwave radiation, for a period of 30 min, at the different temperatures previously indicated, to determine if the capsaicinoids suffered any degradation.
This would allow us to select a suitable extraction temperature that would increase the effectiveness of the extraction without causing degradation of the capsaicinoids.
