Peach palm: Pseudo-wood for sustainable jewelry design

Materials Today: Proceedings, 2020
Abstract The stipe of peach palm (Bactris gasipaes, Kunth) provides a pseudo-wood with high mechanical properties that can be used to make numerous objects. As every timber, this pseudo-wood is a natural and renewable composite, with a lifespan limited by the degradation of its basic components. This degradation can be caused by chemical reactions or

Development and properties of biodegradable film from peach palm (Bactris gasipaes)

Food Research International, 2023
Formulations of biodegradable films using macrocarpa peach palm flour (low amylose starch), chitosan and glycerol, were developed and the effects of the drying temperature on films by assessing their physicochemical, mechanical, barrier, optical, structural, antioxidant properties, and the biodegradability in soil were evaluated.

Evaluation of Peach Palm for Palm Heart Production

The Planter, 2001
For the purpose of crop diversification and food production, a study has been carried out to determine the feasibility of growing peach palm (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) for palm heart production. A total of 160 peach palm seedlings were planted at density 1 111 plants per hectare.

Somatic embryogenesis from peach palm zygotic embryos

In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology - Plant, 2007
The factors affecting the induction and development of somatic embryos and plantlet acclimatization of peach palm (Bactris gasipaes Kunth) were evaluated to establish an efficient regenerative protocol based on somatic embryogenesis. Mature zygotic embryos were cultured in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 0–40 μM of picloram (4-amino-3,

Soil Biodegradation of PHBV/Peach Palm Particles Biocomposites

Journal of Polymers and the Environment, 2010
There is great interest in developing eco-friendly green biocomposites from plant-derived natural fibers and crop-derived bioplastics attributable to their renewable resource-based origin and biodegradable nature. Fully biodegradable composites, made from both biodegradable polymeric matrices and natural fibers, should be advantageous in some ...

Cryopreservation of peach palm zygotic embryos.

Cryo letters, 2007
Cryopreservation is a safe and cost-effective option for long-term germplasm conservation of non-orthodox seed species, such as peach palm (Bactris gasipaes). The objective of the present study was to establish a cryopreservation protocol for peach palm zygotic embryos based on the encapsulation-dehydration technique.
