Antioxidants, quinone reductase inducers and acetylcholinesterase inhibitors from Spondias tuberosa fruits [PDF]
The methanolic extract of umbu (Spondias tuberosa) presented high antioxidant activities in the DPPH, ABTS and ORAC assays, as well as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition activity. The dichloromethane extract exhibited cancer chemopreventive activity, with a quinone reductase induction in Hepa1c1c7 cells. The localization of the active compounds was

Giant umbu is a highly perishable tropical fruit whose rapid ripening limits its distribution and availability, yet postharvest studies for this species remain scarce. To address this gap, the present study evaluated the effectiveness of arrowroot starch–based edible coatings incorporating emulsions containing different concentrations of lemongrass ...

Secagem da polpa do umbu (Spondias tuberosa) em camada de espuma
O umbu é um fruto nativo da região Nordeste de sabor levemente ácido e rico em vitamina C, entretanto, apresenta um alto teor de desperdícios por sua extrema perecibilidade. A Secagem é um método conhecido para diminuir a atividade de água dos alimentos e assim prolongar a vida útil dos frutos, permitindo um armazenamento prolongado e uma maior ...
