Trypanocidal activity of extracts and fractions of Bertholletia excelsa

Fìtoterapìâ, 2005
Crude extracts and fractions of Bertholletia excelsa stem barks were tested for trypanocidal activity. Acetone and methanol extracts showed significant in vitro trypanocidal activity against trypomastigote form of Trypanosoma cruzi since in the concentration of 500 microg/ml, the parasites were reduced in 100% and 90.3% respectively, whereas the ...

Expression of the 2S albumin from Bertholletia excelsa in Brassica napus

Molecular and General Genetics MGG, 1990
The methionine rich 2S albumin seed storage protein of Bertholletia excelsa has been expressed in seeds of Brassica napus (rapeseed). A chimeric gene driven by the soybean lectin 5' flanking regions was used to produce a fusion protein consisting of the soybean lectin signal peptide and the propeptide of the Brazil nut 2S albumin.

Study of Selenium Distribution in the Protein Fractions of the Brazil Nut, Bertholletia excelsa

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2004
The high selenium content of the Brazil nut, Bertholletia excelsa, makes this seed a healthy food qualified as an antiradical protector. The studied nut contained 126 ppm of selenium. Selenium was found to be distributed in the nut protein fractions. The water-extracted fraction, which represented 17.7% of the cake protein, was the richest in selenium ...
