“…The compounds linalool (monoterpene), dodecan-1-ol (alcohol) and trans-hex-2-enal (aldehyde) were present at all times and temperatures studied. The presence of 2-hexenal also was reported in mangabas by Assumpç ão et al (2014) in fruits coming from another location (Mato Grosso and Goiás -Brazil).…”

“…The species that exhibited the best antioxidant activity in the three tests and anticholinesterase activity was H. speciosa. This plant is currently used in the treatment of several conditions, including fractures, inflammation, ulcers, pain, hypertension, and diabetes, and its effects are probably attributable to the antioxidant capacity of compounds present, such as phenols, tannins, flavones, flavonoids, leucoanthocyanidins, and alkaloids [ 44 ]. H. speciosa also exhibited the best results among all the species tested in terms of anticholinesterase activity.…”

Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been linked with oxidative stress, acetylcholine deficiency in the brain, and inflammatory processes. In the northeast region of Brazil, various plants are used to treat several diseases associated with these processes; then an antioxidant test was performed with those plants in a previous work and twelve species with higher antioxidant activity were selected for AChE inhibition evaluation. The phenolic compounds content was determined by Folin–Ciocalteu test and flavonoid content with AlCl3 reagent using UV-visible spectrophotometry. The antioxidant activity was assessed analyzing the inhibitory activity against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate (ABTS) and by the β-carotene/linoleic acid system and acetylcholinesterase inhibition using qualitative and quantitative tests. The combination of better acetylcholinesterase inhibitory and antioxidant activities pointed out six species, in descending order, as the best potential sources of therapeutic agents against AD: Hancornia speciosa > Myracrodruon urundeuva > Copaifera langsdorffii > Stryphnodendron coriaceum > Psidium guajava > Mangifera indica. Besides, the phenolic compounds in the species probably contribute to these activities. However, further pharmacological studies to assess the specific applications of these plants against AD are required to confirm these results.

“…A mangabeira, planta frutífera com porte variando entre 4 e 10 m de altura, podendo raramente chegar até 15 m, pertencente à classe Dicotyledoneae, ordem Gentianales, família Apocynaceae, gênero Harcornia e à espécie Hancornia speciosa, é uma planta nativa do Brasil. De acordo com relatos de estudiosos, o nome "mangaba" é originário da língua tupi guarani e significa "coisa boa de comer" (FERREIRA, 2007;ASSUMPÇÃO et al, 2014). A mangabeira pode ser encontrada em toda a região brasileira, desde os tabuleiros costeiros e baixadas litorâneas do Nordeste, onde é mais abundante, até as áreas sob Cerrado da Região Centro-Oeste.…”

A mangaba apresenta grande potencial para elaboração de fermentados alcoólicos, sendo de extrema importância o acompanhamento do processo fermentativo para obtenção dessa bebida, assim como de outras. Assim, objetivou-se acompanhar e avaliar o processo cinético de fermentação e os parâmetros fermentativos de bebidas fermentadas de mangaba. Foram elaboradas quatro formulações de fermentados com variação do teor de sólidos solúveis inicial e concentração de leveduras conforme etapas e concentrações descritas no processo de pedido de patente BR 10 2018 075834 9. Durante a fermentação, retirou-se alíquotas para o acompanhamento da cinética de fermentação e parâmetros fermentativos. Verificou-se que o comportamento cinético, com exceção do tempo de fermentação, não sofreu interferência pelas variáveis estudadas, e que a formulação 3 (maior teor de sólidos solúveis e menos concentração de levedura) e formulação 4 (maior teor de sólidos solúveis e maior concentração de levedura) apresentaram melhores resultados principalmente no tocante a teor alcoólico, concentração de etanol experimental e teórico, rendimento do processo e em produto. Conclui-se que não houve diferença no comportamento cinético, mas existiu nos parâmetros fermentativos das bebidas de mangaba.
