Abstract
, and these bioactivities depend chiefly on the phenolic contents and profiles in the different extracts. The safety of rambutan peel extracts was analyzed. In addition, rambutan peel extracts could be used as important components to make different products, which are potentially applied in food, medicine, and cosmetic. However, the extracts efficiency must be further increased using some emerging technologies. Furthermore, the bioactive mechanism and bioavailability of the extract in human system should be further evaluated.
