“…In the extract of fruits [32,33] and leaves [31,36] of C. adamantium, species with the same genus of flavononas and chalconas have been identified, among them 2′,4′-dihydroxy-3′,5′-dimethyl-6′-methoxychalcone. On the other hand, 2′,4′-dihydroxy-3′,5′-dimethyl-6′ methoxychalcone were identified in fruits of C.pubescens [19].…”

Campomanesia xanthocarpa (Myrtaceae) is used in Brazilian traditional medicine against fever, diabetes, hypercholesteremic, obesity, and urinary diseases. In the present study, the compounds 2',6'-dihydroxy-3'-methyl-4'-metoxychalcone and 2',4'-dihydroxy-3',5'-dimethyl-6'-methoxychalcone were identified for the first time in leaves of the C. xanthocarpa. These compounds and the hydroethanolic extract (HECX) significantly inhibited paw edema and reduced both leukocyte migration and the leakage of protein into the pleural cavity. No toxicity was detected by HECX in an acute toxicity test.

“…The leaves of C. adamantium are used as infusion in the treatment of diarrhoea and bladder diseases (Cardoso et al, 2010). Guavira fruits have an agreeable flavour and aroma as well as elevated vitamin contents (Ramos, Cardoso, & Yamamoto, 2007) and are widely used in the production of homemade liqueurs, juices & sweets (Cardoso et al, 2010).…”

Shelf life of powdered Campomanesia adamantium pulp in controlled environments

2012

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The objective of this study was to evaluate the shelf life of powdered guavira pulp obtained by a foam mat drying process. The dehydrated guavira pulp was packed into low density polyethylene (LDPE) bags and stored under two controlled conditions: environmental (25°C, RH 75%) and accelerated (35°C, RH 90%) for 90 days. The shelf life was accompanied by carrying out the following analyses every 10 days: moisture content, water activity, vitamin C content, pH and titratable acidity. Vitamin C was the quality attribute used to determine the shelf life of the product, by determining its degradation kinetics as a function of storage time. The linear regression data showed that the vitamin C degradation reaction fitted the zero and first order kinetic models. The shelf life of the powdered guavira pulp under environmental conditions was approximately 49 days, and under accelerated conditions (35°C) 45 days. The Q10 was equal to 1.09, predicting a shelf life similar to that found under environmental conditions. The moisture content for these conditions was 10.0% e 5.4% for 35°C and 25°C, respectively. The above demonstrate the efficiency of the accelerated test in predicting the shelf life of the product.

Results confirm the Brazilian ethnopharmacological use of Campomanesia lineatifolia as a gastroprotective agent and indicate that the anti-ulcer effect is most likely mediated by scavenging free radicals due to the polyphenol content and, at least in part, by increasing the mucus secretion and the mucosal defense. In addition, EEC and EAFC were found to be safe when applied to a 2000 mg/kg single oral dose.
