Abstract The seed oils of different varieties 4 Passiflora species cultivated in Brazil were analyzed and compared regarding their physicochemical parameters, fatty acid composition the presence minor components, such as phytosterols, tocopherols, total carotenoids, phenolic compounds. antioxidant capacities oil extracts determined using 2,2'azinobis [3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulfonic acid] oxygen radical absorbance capacity methods. results revealed that all studied possessed similar...
The Passiflora genus comprises hundreds of wild and cultivated species passion fruit used for food, industrial, ornamental medicinal purposes. Efforts to develop genomic tools genetic analysis P. edulis, the most important commercial species, are still incipient. In spite many recognized applications microsatellite markers in genetics breeding, their availability research remains restricted. Microsatellite edulis usually limited number, show reduced polymorphism, mostly based on compound or...
A bstract : The quest for new control strategies ticks can profit from high throughput genomics. In order to identify genes that are involved in oogenesis and development, defense, hematophagy, the transcriptomes of ovaries, hemocytes, salivary glands rapidly ingurgitating females, males Boophilus microplus were PCR amplified, expressed sequence tags (EST) random clones mass sequenced. So far, more than 1,344 EST have been generated these tissues, with approximately 30% novelty, depending on...
The study of biodiversity for species recovery and sustainable use has encouraged research with plants from Brazilian savannah. We aimed to characterize chemical sensory properties infusions passifloras, due their potential as functional beverages. Infusions hydroalcoholic extracts four wild three varieties Passiflora edulis a commercial passiflora tea were evaluated total phenolics (TPs), flavonoids (TFs), condensed tannins (CTs), antioxidant activity (DPPH FRAP). Free-choice Profile...
Bioactive amines were determined in selected passion fruit species and throughout development. The same (spermine, spermidine, agmatine, putrescine tryptamine) found four Passiflora (2008–2010 growing seasons) at different concentrations: P. alata had higher polyamines (spermine + 8.41 mg/100 g); setacea nitida (> 7.0 agmatine contents (1.37 g) compared to the others. indolamine tryptamine was present low concentrations all (~ 0.05 g). highest soluble solids 18°Brix); edulis lowest pH (2.97)...
Brazil is the world's largest producer of passion fruit, a perishable fruit with reduced post-harvest shelf life, which limits its commercialization. For sweet Passiflora alata, there little information about postharvest conservation and life under different storage conditions. Thus, objective present study was to determine P. alata fruits packed on styrofoam trays rapped 10 μm PVC film HDPE 30 thick, coated 18% carnauba wax without any packaging; stored ambient conditions (25 °C 70%...
Background: Passiflora setacea (PS) is a passionfruit variety of the Brazilian savannah and rich source plant food bioactives with potential anti-inflammatory activity. This study aimed to investigate effect an acute intake PS juice upon inflammation, metabolic parameters, gene expression on circulating immune cells in humans. Methods: Overweight male volunteers (n = 12) were enrolled two double-blind placebo-controlled studies. Blood samples collected from fasting 3 h after consumption 250...
Resumo A Passiflora setacea DC. é uma espécie silvestre de maracujazeiro que ocorre nos biomas Cerrado e Caatinga, em áreas transição, como o Semiárido norte-mineiro do Brasil. alta perecibilidade dos frutos P. reduz sua vida útil, limitando comercialização. Objetivou-se determinar a melhor temperatura sanitizante para conservação pós-colheita setacea. Os foram submetidos dois sanitizantes químicos armazenados por 21 dias, sob condição ambiente (21,3 °C 77,8% umidade relativa) nas...
ABSTRACT Passiflora cincinnata Mast. (caatinga passion fruit) has acidic fruits with a peculiar flavor, green color when ripe and low percentage of abscission making it difficult to identify the point harvest. In order verify harvest period in two populations P.cincinnata, flowers were marked anthesis after six periods harvested. This study evaluated fruit mass, seeds pulp dimensions shape, water, texture skin, volume, yield, pH, soluble solids (SS), titratable acidity ratio, polyphenol...
ABSTRACT: Scientific research on passion fruit has been conducted in several institutions worldwide, and it is of interest to the productive sector, scientific community, science technology managers learn about current advances opportunities through metric studies bibliographic information. A survey publications indexed Web Science Agricultural Research Database-BDPA, European Patent Office - Espacenet, Embrapa’s technologies projects were used as indicators characterize networks. This study...
Physical analyses and an analysis of the mineral content were carried out by peroxide-perchloric wet-digestion, taking readings using inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) measurements analytical balance digital paquimeter, three commercial hybrids Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa Deg.: BRS Sol do Cerrado, Ouro Vermelho Gigante Amarelo, cultivated harvested from experimental area Embrapa Cerrados, Planaltina, DF, Brazil, in October/2007. Eighteen fruits evaluated...
To determine the main causes of hemoptysis and to classify this symptom, in terms amount blood expectorated, patients hospitalized at a referral hospital for pulmonology.The study included 50 with admitted pulmonology ward general city Recife, Brazil, between July 2005 February 2006. The data interest were analyzed compared those literature.The most common cause was infection--in 39 (78%)--mostly related tuberculosis sequelae or active tuberculosis. Regarding severity hemoptysis, moderate...
Passiflora setacea (PS), a fruit from the Brazilian biodiversity rich in polyphenols. PS juice reduced insulin, IL-6 levels and HOMA IR humans. And its phenolic metabolites increased activity of PPAR-γ BV-2 cells.
Passiflora setacea DC. is a passion fruit species native from Brazilian savannah characterized by naturally sweet sensory characteristics. The quality of the pulp can be affected growing environment. effect training systems (trellis or espalier), seasons (the weather conditions in periods drought and rain) addition seeds to juice (25%) were evaluated, with emphasis on P. nectars.Training plantation did not influence flavor aroma nectars. Season had an texture attributes. Although system...
We estimated the shelf life of pasteurized Passiflora setacea pulp, by accelerated tests based on microbiological, nutritional, functional, and sensory variables. The pulp was using binomial 82 °C/20 s stored at 25, 35, 45 °C. quality evaluated beginning storage every two days, up to 12 days. Vitamin C, flavonoids, ORAC FRAP antioxidant activity, microbiological evaluations were carried out. On last day tests, had counts <1.0 CFU/g, 6.70 6.30 CFU/g molds yeasts, for temperatures 25 °C, 35...
