“…42 In addition, a previous paper that investigated extracts from different parts of M. scabrella demonstrated the presence of flavonoid glycosides and tannins in flowers. 43 Although no chemical identification was provided by these authors, these data were used for search for the presence of a phenolic content in the M. marginata honey extract, which was confirmed.…”

Melipona marginata is an endangered species of stingless bee from Brazil that produces honey with particular physicochemical features and a remarkable exotic flavor. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report devoted to exploring the medicinal potential of this honey. Thus, the aim of this paper was to investigate the potential anti-inflammatory activity of honey extract from M. marginata on skin inflammation. The honey sample was classified as a monofloral honey of Mimosa scabrella. The presence of 11 phenolic compounds as kaempferol and caffeic acid was detected using the high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-UV-ESI-MS) method. The anti-inflammatory activity was measured using a 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate-induced ear edema model of inflammation in mice. The topical application of the M. marginata honey extract (1.0 mg/ear) was able to reduce ear edema with an inhibitory effect of 54 ± 5%. This extract decreased the myeloperoxidase activity in 75 ± 3%, which suggests a lower leucocyte infiltration that was confirmed by histological analysis. This extract also provided a reduction of 55 ± 14% in the production of reactive oxygen species. This anti-inflammatory activity could be due to a synergic effect of the phenolic compounds identified in the honey sample. Taken together, these results open up new possibilities for the use of M. marginata honey extract in skin disorders.

La diversidad morfológica del género Mimosa y su problemática taxonómica han propiciado la búsqueda de caracteres en otras fuentes de evidencia como la anatomía de la madera. Se realizó un estudio comparativo de la anatomía de la madera de tres especies de Mimosa distribuidas en México: M. arenosa, M. lacerata y M. polyantha (Sección Batocaulon); la primera de amplia distribución en la vertiente del Pacífico en México, Nicaragua, Colombia, Venezuela y Brasil; mientras que las otras dos especies son endémicas de México. Del tallo de tres individuos por especie se colectó una troza de 80 cm de largo, a 80 cm de distancia del suelo. Se hicieron 25 mediciones de 15 caracteres anatómicos por individuo. Los resultados indican que los caracteres distintivos a nivel específico son: el tipo de porosidad, el tipo y la predominancia del parénquima axial y la presencia o ausencia de traqueidas vasicéntricas y de cristales prismáticos.

“…Mimosa scabrella Benth. (Fabaceae) is a tree species, popularly known as bracatinga, with a height of 10 to 18 meters, and 20 to 30 centimeters of DBH (diameter at breast height -1.30 m), being able to reach from 20 to 30 m in height and 40 to 50 cm in DBH after eight years old, when a vital decline is common (Fabrowski et al, 2005). It is a perennial, heliophyte and pioneer plant (Saueressig, 2014), which occurs mainly in secondary formations of the Mixed Ombrophilous Forest, where it forms almost pure dense nuclei (Rotta & Oliveira, 1981).…”

Water Saturation Stress in Mimosa scabrella Seedlings

2018

The stress caused by water saturation has negative consequences for plants. The search for species tolerant to flooded soils can make feasible the use of areas with these characteristics. The objective of this study was to observe the effect of water saturation levels on the initial growth of Mimosa scabrella Benth seedlings. Newly germinated seedlings were subjected to three water depths (without saturation, 1/3, and 2/3 above the pot capacity) in a greenhouse environment. After 173 days, it was verified that for most of the variables there was no difference between the control treatment and the two saturation levels. In addition, the analysis of seedling quality demonstrated the ability of the species to develop and survive in this condition. Therefore, it is inferred that bracatinga is a promising species for cultivation under water saturation conditions.
