Abstract: -Buriti is a fruit with potential for economic exploitation due to its nutritional components; however, there are few studies about their post-harvest characteristics. Thus, the aim of this study was to determine the physicochemical characteristics and analyze the antioxidant activity of Buriti pulp. Fruits were harvested at full maturity stage, sanitized, pulped and stored under refrigeration until freezing. Then, pulp was submitted to the following analyses: moisture, protein, total carbohydrates and reducin… Show more

“…This difference in vitamin C content in M. flexuosa L. pulp is also evident if we compare two Brazilian regions in studies carried out by Schiassi et al. (2018) (7.42 ± 0.19 mg Vit C/100 g DW) in the Cerrado region, and Sandri et al. (2017) (49.67 ± 0.92 mg Vit C/100 g DW) in the city of Diamantino, Mato Grosso.…”

“…The pulp of its fruit is edible, has a reddish-yellow coloration with a slightly acid-sweet taste, and has been used as a raw material in the preparation of juices and sweets (Yuyama, Yonekura, Aguiar, & Sousa, 1998). The pulp is also rich in unsaturated fatty acids, carotenoids (α-and β-carotenes), polyphenols and ascorbic acid and has a remarkable antioxidant capacity (Bovi, Petrus, & Pinho, 2017;Mariath et al, 1989;Sandri et al, 2017;Yuyama et al, 1998). The average total carotenoid content in the pulp of the buriti palm fruit has been estimated at 25 mg/100 g (Manhães & Sabaa-Srur, 2011).…”

“…The buritis from Goiás showed similar behaviors to those from São Paulo (Schiassi et al, 2018) and Maranhão (Mariath et al, 1989), with close values for the moisture, protein, total lipid and total energy. Whereas the buritis from Pará and Tocantins showed values closer to those of buritis from Amazonas (Aguiar & Souza, 2017), Mato Grosso (Sandri et al;2017) and Pará (Manhães & Sabaa-Srur, 2011) (Table 3). Thus, the proximities of values could be related to the origin of the fruits, since buritis harvested in the regions dominated by the Amazonian biome tended to show similar compositions, the same occurring in the regions dominated by the Savanna biome.…”
