Storage stability of free and microencapsulated lycopene during storage at 10°C: (◆) 1 (P2.5/R25) (−0,3391𝑥 + 99,474/𝑅² = 0,9819), (■) 6 (P5.0/R75) (−0,3242𝑥 + 99,201/𝑅² = 0,9906), and (⚫) free lycopene (−0,5257𝑥 + 99,297/𝑅² = 0,9922) and during storage at 25°C: (◊) 1 (P2.5/R25) (−0,5384𝑥 + 97,236/𝑅² = 0,9796), (□) 6 (P5.0/R75) (−0,4203𝑥 + 97,947/𝑅² = 0,9505), and (○) free lycopene (−0,666𝑥 + 97,194/𝑅² = 0,9754).
