Extração, embebição e germinação de sementes de tucumã (Astrocaryum aculeatum) [PDF]
Acta Amazonica, 2006 A pesquisa teve como objetivo avaliar a influência da extração e da embebição das sementes sobre a germinação de tucumã (Astrocaryum aculeatum Meyer, Arecaceae). Após limpeza e secagem dos pirênios, o endocarpo foi quebrado e removido para liberação das sementes que, antes da semeadura, foram submetidas à embebição em água por 0, 3, 6, 9, 12 e 15 dias.

Hyperlipidemia generates deposition of lipids, inflammation, and oxidative damage in cells and tissues, including those of the brain. Tucumã (Astrocaryum aculeatum) fruits contain bioactive compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. We evaluated the action of Tucumã extract on memory and brain cortex redox balance in hyperlipidemic rats.

Eye diseases have a negative impact on the eyesight quality of the world population. The age-related macular degeneration (AMD) draws special attention since it is a chronic disorder characterized by oxidative and inflammatory damage to the retinal epithelial pigment, which triggers progressive vision loss.

Natural fibre-based composites have been investigated as a viable ecological alternative to conventional materials, combining low-cost and sustainable features to engineering products. In tropical countries, such as Brazil, there are many lignocellulosic residues that are discarded in nature, polluting the environment, such as the Tucuma fruit, which ...

Elemental Chemistry Composition of Astrocaryum aculeatum Meyer (arecaceae) Using Edxrf Methods
International Journal of Applied Science - Research and Review, 2018The organic chemical composition of some of them has already been published, but the inorganic part is rarely cited. Arising from this interest and few studies on the chemical composition of regional plants, it is understood that this type of study should be done, because it is an extreme necessity for industrial areas which are above reported.

Tucuma (Astrocaryum aculeatum) is an Amazonian fruit that presents high levels of carotenoids and other bioactive compounds such as quercetin. The extracts of tucuma peel and pulp present strong antioxidant activity which illustrate an elevated concentration that causes cytotoxic effects in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).

Supercritical fluid extraction of oil from spent Tucumã-do-Amazonas (Astrocaryum aculeatum) peel
Food Research InternationalSupercritical fluid extraction (SFE) was applied to obtain oil from the tucumã-do-Amazonas (Astrocaryum aculeatum) peel (TAP). SFE was performed using CO2 as solvent at different pressures and temperatures. The extracts were characterized for their global yield, lipid content, fatty acid and triacylglycerol profiles, carotenoid and tocopherol content ...
