Divergent litter traits of riparian plant species between humid and drier biomes within the tropics

Ecography, Volume 2023, Issue 2, February 2023., 2023
Riparian forests provide abundant plant litter – mostly in the form of dead leaves (hereafter litter) – for both forest soils and adjacent stream ecosystems, supporting terrestrial and aquatic detritus‐based food webs. Although the fate of litter is predominantly dependent on its chemical and physical traits, there is limited availability of data on ...

Polyphenols, antioxidants, and antimutagenic effects of Copaifera langsdorffii fruit

Food Chemistry, 2016
Copaifera langsdorffii (copaiba) is a Brazilian exotic fruit, poorly studied regarding its bioactive composition. The aim of this study was to determine bioactive compounds, antioxidant and antimutagenic activities of copaiba pulp. The samples were extracted with different solvents in order to analyze polyphenol compounds (Folin Ciocalteau and HPLC-DAD)

Loss of desiccation tolerance in Copaifera langsdorffii Desf. seeds during germination [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2014
This study evaluated the loss of desiccation tolerance in C. langsdorffii seeds during the germination process. Seeds were imbibed for 24, 48, 72, 96, 120 and 144 hours and dried to the initial moisture content, kept in this state for 3 days after which they were submitted to pre-humidification and rehydration.

Beta‐caryophyllene as an antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and re‐epithelialization activities in a rat skin wound excision model

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
The skin is a critical organ for the maintenance of the integrity and protection of the organism. When a wound occurs, a sequence of healing mechanisms is triggered to reconstruct the wounded area. β‐caryophyllene is a sesquiterpene in Copaifera langsdorffii oleoresin with antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory potential.
