“…These results could be due to the chemical composition of amaranth containing unsaturated and saturated FAs, and the most abundant FA is linoleic acid, which comprises approximately 40% of all FAs, followed by oleic acid [ 34 ]. A study showed that the use of Platonia insignis nuts as an ingredient in the preparation of cookies reported 43.48 ± 0.37 % of oleic acid and 11.14 ± 0.15% of linolenic acid [ 35 ]. Another study also reported the presence of these FAs in cookies by the addition of flax seeds, which contained 4.75–5.31% of linolenic acid [ 36 ].…”

Chaya and amaranth are Mexican traditional foods with a high nutritional value. Many studies have demonstrated the individual beneficial effect of each. However, there is no evidence of the use of these foods on the formulation of functional foods. This study evaluated the effect of replacing 5–20% of wheat flour with chaya and amaranth flours to generate four different formulations of cookies. Proximal analysis, total polyphenols and oxalate content, antioxidant activity, fatty acid profile, and sensory analysis were performed on the cookies. The results of the chemical composition showed that all cookies have a high protein content (9.21–10.10%), an adequate amount of fiber (5.34–6.63%), and a balanced ratio of unsaturated–saturated fatty acids (70:20), and they contain PUFAs (50.4–53.2 g/100 g of fatty acids), especially α-linolenic and oleic acids. All formulations presented antioxidant activity (2540 ± 65.9 to 4867 ± 61.7 Trolox equivalents (μmoles/100 g)) and polyphenols (328–790 mg/100 g); in particular, quercetin was identified in their composition. Results of the sensory analysis indicated that incorporation of chaya and amaranth flour in cookies does not affect the acceptability of the products. The inclusion of traditional foods, such as chaya and amaranth, in cookies enhances their nutritional value and increases the content of bioactive compounds associated with health effects.

“…Native from the Amazon forest, PA can be reported from southern Mexico to the north of Brazil and is mostly used in urban landscaping, restoration of wetlands, and degraded soils and forests (JORGE & LUZIA, 2012;. The PA tree produces seeds rich in lipids with high productivity which present potential for exploration for foods, pharmaceuticals, medicine, cosmetics and biofuels industries (JORGE & LUZIA, 2012;SILVA et al, 2015;RAISER et al, 2018;OLIVEIRA et al, 2019;RODRIGUES et al, 2019;SILVA et al, 2020;.…”

Pachira aquatica fruits shells valorization: renewables phenolics through analytical pyrolysis study (Py-GC/MS)

This research valorized Pachira aquatica Aubl.’s fruit shells (PAS) through its energetic characterization and flash pyrolysis for biofuels or chemicals production. The characterization was performed through proximate and ultimate analysis, bulk density, higher heating value (HHV), hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin content, thermogravimetric analysis and absorption spectra in the infrared region obtained by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy technique (FTIR). The analytical flash pyrolysis was performed at 500°C in a Py-5200 HP-R coupled to a gas chromatograph (Py-GC/MS). The PAS biomass presents potential for thermochemical energy conversion processes due to its low moisture and ash content, 76.90% of volatile matter, bulk density of 252.6 kg/m3 and HHV of 16.24 MJ/kg. Flash pyrolysis products are mostly phenols or light organic acids derived from the decomposition of polysaccharides. Results confirmed the potential of PAS to produce bio-phenolics, such as 4-methoxyphenol which is an important active ingredient for skin depigmentation used in drugs and cosmetics, and as phenolic extract that can be used as a precursor to resins, applications that convert this forest waste into bio products for industry into a green circular economy.

“…Monguba is a fruit species that can be found from Southern Mexico to northern Brazil. Its fruits are similar to cocoa and the seeds have nutritional potential because they contain many proteins, lipids, and minerals, being widely studied as unconventional food plants (UFPs) (Silva et al 2020). The seed is also applicable as a biological controller due to the ethanolic extract that composes them, the oil obtained from the seeds can be used as an antioxidant and in biofuel production, and the leaves can be consumed as medicinal herbs (Pantoja et al 2020;Rodrigues et al 2019).…”

Chemical contamination of the environment by heavy metals is becoming a serious problem in the worldwide due to increased human activities and industrial development. Therefore, researchers have been looking for alternatives to remediate these contaminants with economical and efficient technologies. This work aimed to value Pachira aquatica Aubl. fruit peels through the applicability of this material in the biosorption process for removal of Ni(II) and Cd(II) metal ions. Characterization of Pachira aquatica Aubl. fruit peel biochar (PAB) was performed through the proximate analysis, helium pycnometry, XRD, SEM, point of zero charges, zeta potential, and Boehm titration method. Design of experiment (DOE) was carried out, as well as kinetic, isotherm, and thermodynamic batch biosorption, and finally, column biosorption tests were performed. The PAB presents potential as a biosorbent due to its low amount of moisture, density similar to that of commercial activated carbons, neutral point of zero charges, porous, irregular, heterogeneous, and negative surface within the presence of functional groups capable of efficiently connecting with heavy metal. The biosorption equilibrium time was obtained at 300 min for both ions, following a pseudo second-order kinetic model and Langmuir isotherm model. The column tests presented an exhaust volume of 40.2 mg/L and 29.2 mg/L for Ni(II) and Cd(II), respectively. Thus, it is concluded that the PAB has the potential as a biosorbent for the removal of heavy, it leads to the valorization of this co-product and the reduction of environmental pollution.
