Effects of Clarified Açaí Supplementation and Photobiomodulation on the Parotid Glands of Rats Submitted to Chemotherapy. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background The antineoplastic drugs used in anticancer treatment regimens can induce changes in normal tissues, including salivary glands. This study evaluated the effects of clarified açaí and photobiomodulation (PBM) on the oxidative biochemistry and microstructure of the parotid glands of rats with oral mucositis. Methods Male rats (n = 54)

Upcycled Beverage From Roasted Açaí (Euterpe oleracea) Seeds: Antioxidant Capacity and Cytoprotection Through Gastrointestinal Simulation. [PDF]
Roasted açaí grains contain phenolic compounds, including chlorogenic and vinylic acids, catechin, tannins, and procyanidins. Their percolates show antioxidant potential after in vitro digestion, with low cytotoxicity and cytoprotective effects on Caco‐2 cells, highlighting their bioactive value. ABSTRACT Acai seeds have been used in roasting processes,

Biosynthesized Silver Nanoparticles Modulate Inflammation in a Palatine Wound Model. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objectives This study aimed to compare the effects of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) synthesized with Curcumin (Curcuma longa L.) or Açai (Euterpe oleracea) versus a commercial treatment and photobiomodulation in rat palatal wounds. Methods In vitro cell viability tests assessed nanoparticle toxicity. The animals were initially anesthetized, and

Effects of the inclusion of açai oil in diet of prepartum Holstein cows on milk production, somatic cell counts and future lactation [PDF]
We measured the effects of açai oil in the diets of prepartum cows to evaluate health, milk production and quality. Sixteen Holstein cows were divided into two groups: SOY used as control, and AÇAI, test group.
