Parameters related to permeation of tyrosol from chitosan vehicles through tomato peel (mean ± SE, n = 6). Different letters indicate statistically significant differences between formulations, according to Student’s two-tailed unpaired t-test (p < 0.05). TYR1 and TYR2, 1.0% and 2.0% w/w tyrosol, respectively.

Formulation	J (µg cm−2 h−1)	Q%5h
TYR1	27.88 ± 0.12 b	2.73 ± 0.38
TYR2	81.57 ± 3.51a	3.51 ± 0.30
