Identificación y valor nutricional de algunos materiales nativos de arándano (Vaccinium spp)

Abstract: <p>El arándano es un arbusto de la familia de las ericáceas del género Vaccinium. Sus frutos son bayas de color oscuro, azuladas o rojizas. Presenta cualidades nutricionales y antioxidantes que lo hace un fruto de alto valor medicinal y nutricional. En el curso de este estudio se localizaron, recolectaron, identificaron y analizaron por el método de ORAC (capacidad antioxidante total) varios materiales silvestres identificados como Vaccinium consanguinium. Los análisis químicos mostraron los altos índice… Show more

“…TVS begin flowering in the rainy season (May–November) and bear fruit in the dry season (December–May) . Berries from Vaccinium species are sources of polyphenols, which are widely researched in the field of nutrition because of putative health benefits that are associated with polyphenols. , Berry consumption in Costa Rica has increased since 2012, and importation of berries from North and South America to Costa Rica increased 320% .…”

“…KEYWORDS: proanthocyanidins, anthocyanin, A-type interflavan bonds, MALDI−TOF MS of the National Fruit Growing Program by the Costa Rican Department of Agriculture. 1,4,8 Polyphenols found in Vaccinium species, such as cranberry, contain hydroxycinnamic acids, flavonols, anthocyanins, and proanthocyanidins, among others. 9,10 Anthocyanins are watersoluble pigments that vary by the number of methyl, methoxy, or hydroxyl group, the nature and number of sugars attached to the molecule, and the nature and number of aliphatic or aromatic acids attached to sugars in the molecule.…”

“…Wild berry species, such as blackberry, strawberry, and blueberry, have been reported to possess greater biological activity as compared to cultivated species [14][15][16]. Therefore, one of the current methods of plant breeders is the identification of wild species, which are rich in secondary metabolites and have a greater biological activity, to be used as resources to achieve improved bioactivity in berries [17,18].…”

“…En Costa Rica, el arándano es una de las especies silvestres cuya domesticación ha despertado gran interés, ya que es horticulturalmente promisorio y está bien adaptado a zonas altas. El arándano nativo, Vaccinium consanguineum, presenta altos contenidos de antioxidantes al igual que otras especies de este género [5]. Este material nativo ha sido establecido asépticamente, observándose una lenta brotación y desarrollo de sus yemas latentes, aún en presencia de reguladores de crecimientos [6].…”
