The present manuscript reviews the findings of different research studies that evaluate the use of fungal solid-state (SSF) and submerged culture fermentation (SCF) with agro-industrial residues as substrates to enhance the production of polyphenols and their possible uses as food additives. Some agro-industrial residues (peels, pulps and seeds) are an important source of phenolic acids (p-coumaric, p-hydroxybenzoic, chlorogenic, cinnamic, ferulic, gallic, gentisic, protocatechuic, rosmarinic, salycilic, syringic, and vanillic acids) and flavonoid compounds (apigenin, chrysin, (+)-catechin, kaempferol, myricetin, quercetin, rutin, hesperetin, and naringin). In addition, the utilization of these residues as substrates in SCF and SSF enhances polyphenol production, improves biological function by increasing antioxidant and antimicrobial activities, and provides a potential alternative to synthetic antioxidant uses in the meat and meat products industry. |
