“…Este valor es significativo al compararse con otras fuentes vegetales, como los arándanos, que generalmente contienen entre 275 y 645 mg AGE/100 g FW (19). Las cáscaras de otros productos vegetales presentan concentraciones más altas de compuestos fenólicos, como la curaba con valores de 4690.1 ± 28.2 mg AGE/100 g FW (20), y el orujo de uva con 7475 mg AGE/100 g FW (21). Los valores del IC50 para los radicales ABTS y DPPH varió en una concentración entre 50 y 100 mg AGE/100 g FW (tabla 1).…”

El sacha inchi (SI) es una planta autóctona de la Amazonía, cuyas semillas se destacan por su alto contenido de ácidos grasos poliinsaturados, en particular el omega 3 (18:3n-3, ácido linolénico). Las semillas de SI empleadas en este trabajo contienen 37.9 ± 1.2% de aceite, en el cual 45.90 ± 0.26% es ácido linolénico. En el proceso de extracción del aceite de sacha inchi se retira la cascarilla (CSI), que representa el 31.30 ± 0.50% del total de la semilla. Este subproducto contiene concentraciones significativas de polifenoles (3372 + 23 mg AGE/100 g FW). El aceite de sacha inchi (ASI), junto con el extracto vegetal de polifenoles de la cascarilla, se micro encapsuló mediante secado por aspersión, utilizando maltodextrina y goma arábiga como materiales de recubrimiento. La efectividad de la microencapsulación se evaluó mediante pruebas fisicoquímicas, como contenido de humedad (3.27%), actividad de agua (0.256 ± 0.015), tamaño de las microcápsulas (9.15 y 15.13 μm), solubilidad (88.40 ± 0.10%), humectabilidad (6.5 minutos) y digestión in vitro (50.38 ± 1.19% de aceite liberado). La estabilidad oxidativa de las microcápsulas de ASI enriquecido se evaluó mediante el método Rancimat, revelando el efecto significativo de la microencapsulación al aumentar la vida útil del aceite microencapsulado en un 64% en comparación con el aceite líquido. La oxidación del producto final se evaluó en una cámara de almacenamiento con temperatura (35°C) y humedad (80%) controladas durante 60 días, donde el índice de peróxidos al final del período de seguimiento no superó los 4.22 ± 0.20 meq O2/kg de aceite. Este estudio demuestra la viabilidad tecnológica del proceso de microencapsulación del ASI enriquecido con compuestos fenólicos para prolongar su vida útil.

“…Although various authors have reported a diversity of medicinal plant species with antidiabetic activity, one of the most extensively studied genus has been Passiflora [ 11 , 12 , 13 ]. Specifically, our research group has focused its attention on the study of P. ligularis and its potential use in the treatment of T2DM [ 14 , 15 ].…”

Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major global public health concern, prompting the ongoing search for new treatment options. Medicinal plants have emerged as one such alternative. Our objective was to evaluate the antidiabetic effect of an extract from the leaves of Passiflora ligularis (P. ligularis). For this purpose, T2DM was first induced in mice using a high-fat diet and low doses of streptozotocin. Subsequently, an aqueous extract or an ethanolic extract of P. ligularis leaves was administered for 21 days. The following relevant results were found: fasting blood glucose levels were reduced by up to 41%, and by 29% after an oral glucose overload. The homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was reduced by 59%. Histopathologically, better preservation of pancreatic tissue was observed. Regarding oxidative stress parameters, there was an increase of up to 48% in superoxide dismutase (SOD), an increase in catalase (CAT) activity by 35% to 80%, and a decrease in lipid peroxidation (MDA) by 35% to 80% in the liver, kidney, or pancreas. Lastly, regarding the lipid profile, triglycerides (TG) were reduced by up to 30%, total cholesterol (TC) by 35%, and low-density lipoproteins (LDL) by up to 32%, while treatments increased high-density lipoproteins (HDL) by up to 35%. With all the above, we can conclude that P. ligularis leaves showed antihyperglycemic, hypolipidemic, and antioxidant effects, making this species promising for the treatment of T2DM.

“…The fruits of the species Passiflora edulis Sims f. flavicarpa Degener (sour passion fruit) are rich in antioxidant compounds (Xin et al, 2021), and this species originated from tropical and subtropical countries (Almeida et al, 2021). The sour passion fruit is widely cultivated because of the high commercial yield of its fruits, which are used for fresh consumption and production of derivatives.…”

Simultaneous analysis studies of several agronomic traits in cultivated plants make it possible to identify phenotypic and genotypic differences due to environmental variations, such as altitude. Therefore, the objective was to evaluate, through multivariate analysis of agronomic, physicochemical and physiological characters, passion fruit hybrids cultivated in different environments. The hybrids used were Gigante Amarelo, Rubi do Cerrado and Sol do Cerrado, cultivated in the southern region of Espírito Santo in four municipalities/environments: Marataízes (41 m), Jerônimo Monteiro (104 m), Alegre (711 m), and Ibitirama (1016 m). The agronomic characters of the plants, the physical-chemical characteristics of the fruits and the physical, biochemical and physiological qualities of the seeds were analyzed. The Singh method was used to determine the most important differentiating characters between hybrids growing in different environments. Based on these characters, a dissimilarity matrix was generated and a principal coordinate analysis was performed. It was observed that the pulp yield was influenced by altitude. The three hybrids showed greater performance in terms of agronomic characters at altitude (41 m) than at altitude (104 m). The Sol do Cerrado hybrid showed high performance in the physical-chemical characteristics of the fruits at altitude (104 m).
