Abstract: Grumixama (Eugenia brasiliensis Lam.) is a Brazilian berry native to the Atlantic Rainforest. Information on nutritional and bioactive profiles of the fruit cultivated in the Brazilian Savannah (Cerrado) is not available in literature. The aim of this study was to investigate the physical and proximate composition; mineral, total phenolics, total tannins and total carotenoids contents; and antioxidant capacity (DPPH and FRAP assays) of the dark purple grumixama cultivated in the Cerrado area (Goiás State).

“…Estudos apontam que fatores como clima e incidência solar estão diretamente relacionados com o teor de carotenoides, sendo a incidência solar capaz de favorecer a biossíntese de carotenoides. Entretanto, essa mesma exposição solar também colabora para a fotodegradação destes nutrientes (Xu et al, 2020).…”

“…1). 1,5,10 As for the scientific knowledge about this exotic fruit, some studies have identified part of its composition in terms of bioactive compounds, including some quercetin derivatives, myricetin, ellagitannin derivatives, and anthocyanins in the edible part and seeds. 1,11,12 Moreover, some authors determined, by chemical methods, the antioxidant activity and, by in vivo assays, the anti-inflammatory activity of the extracts obtained from grumixama pulp and seed.…”
