Abstract
The resulting data allowed the identification of the major countries, universities and companies that invest in products containing these compounds. In addition, patents were separated into interest groups. The three clusters discussed in this study were: processes for obtaining enriched isoflavone fractions from different plant materials intended to healthcare products, such as dietary supplements; the use of isoflavones in cosmetic products; and the incorporation of isoflavones in micro and nanostructured systems to mask unpleasant tastes or overcome the low water solubility of bioactive forms. In conclusion, this study, along with other literature reviews, could assist in designing strategic research and worldwide development of new products containing isoflavones.
