Reviewer 3 Report
The manuscript “Microencapsulation of betalains extracted from garambullo (Myrtillocactus geometrizans) to produce active Chitosan-PVA 3 films with delayed release of bioactive compounds is interesting, well performed, well conducted and well organized.
1-Lines 80-82: In this work, we propose an effective method to preserve the main components in 80 garambullo juice using a microencapsulation process. We present the influence of mi- 81 croencapsulated betalains based on garambullo in the fabrication of chitosan-PVA films 82 and their application in tomate coating.
2-Line 92: 30 % soluble solids, which were accepted in the spray drying process, composed by 11.03 % garambullo juice, 0.95 % Aloe vera mucilage, 9.48 % starch, 0.1% Tween 20, 93
3- Figure 1 is not cited in the manuscript.
4- Moderate editing of English language is required.
