To facilitate the lycopene utilization in the food industry, the present review provides a comprehensive summary of lycopene. Firstly, it elaborates on the multifunctional characteristics of lycopene and its underlying action mechanisms. Then, this work critically discusses novel lycopene extraction technologies (ultrasound, microwave, pulsed electric fields, etc.) and explains the high-efficiency working principles. Finally, the applications of lycopene in the quality improvement of meat and meat products are expounded in detail. To conclude, this review innovatively establishes a three-dimensional analytical framework that integrates upstream research on lycopene’s bioactivities, midstream advanced extraction technologies, and downstream specific applications in meat processing. The work is expected to promote the industrial application of lycopene, support the development of high-value functional foods, and ultimately contribute to improving human health.</p> <p></p><p>A 3D framework combining lycopene’s bioactivity, extraction and application is built.</p><p>Lycopene’s multiple bioactivities offer broad benefits to human health.</p><p>Lycopene-mediated meat quality improvement is realized at proper dosages.</p><p>Industrialization bottlenecks of lycopene for meat use remains to be solved.</p><p></p> <p>A 3D framework combining lycopene’s bioactivity, extraction and application is built.</p> <p>Lycopene’s multiple bioactivities offer broad benefits to human health.</p> <p>Lycopene-mediated meat quality improvement is realized at proper dosages.</p> <p>Industrialization bottlenecks of lycopene for meat use remains to be solved.</p> 2026-09-18T07:20:03Z Dataset Dataset 10.6084/m9.figshare.33921950.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/Lycopene_a_review_of_functional_properties_extraction_and_application_in_meat_field/33921950 CC BY 4.0
