Strengths and Weaknesses
• Strengths– Phenolic content gives
potential cause of good natural colorant
– Broad coverage of potential uses and safety of avocado seed extract
– Results communicated well through visuals
– Detailed discussion– Growing interest in natural
colorant sources
• Weaknesses– pH factor: storage
conditions must be considered
– Not enough research• One of the most recent
avocado seed experiment
