“…Bioactive and sensorial properties of fruits have also been investigated with respect to the nutritional aspects of direct consumption, a traditional activity in Chaco regions (Bortolotto et al 2019;Teixeira et al 2019). Nutraceutical studies have explored the use of acrocomia fruits as a complement to high-protein diets and the bioaccessibility of essential minerals contained in the pulp, identifying it as a potential source of Cu, Fe, Mn, and Zn with a high nutritional value (Almeida et al 2020;Gonçalves et al 2020). Furthermore, lipid extracts from A. crispa fruits were shown to have properties protecting against lung and kidney diseases in mice (Mena et al 2019;Oyarzábal-Yera et al 2019).…”

Acrocomia spp., a genus of wild-growing palms in the neotropics, is rapidly gaining interest as a promising multipurpose crop. Diverse products can be derived from various components of the palm, the oils being of highest interest. Acrocomia shows similar oil yield and fatty acid composition to the African oil palm (Elaeis guineensis). It is, however, able to cope with a wider range of environmental conditions, including temporary water scarcity and lower temperatures, thus potentially a more sustainable alternative to its tropical counterpart. Acrocomia’s research history is recent compared to other traditional crops and thus knowledge gaps, uncertainty, and challenges need to be addressed. This review attempts to assess the acrocomia’s preparedness for cultivation by highlighting the state-of-the-art in research and identifying research gaps. Based on a systematic literature search following a value web approach, it (a) provides a comprehensive overview of research topics, (b) shows the development of publication activities over time and the drivers of this development, and (c) compiles main findings to assess the acrocomia’s preparedness for commercial cultivation. Our results confirm its multipurpose characteristic as a potential feedstock for manifold sectors. Research has continued to increase over the last decade, especially on A. aculeata and is driven by the interest in bioenergy. Increasing knowledge on botany has contributed to understanding the genetic diversity and genus-specific biology. This has enabled applied research on seed germination and propagation toward domestication and initial plantation activities, mostly in Brazil. Main research gaps are associated with genotype–environment interaction, planting material, crop management, and sustainable cropping systems. Overall, we conclude that acrocomia is at an early phase of development as an alternative and multipurpose crop and its up-scaling requires the integration of sustainability strategies tailored to location-based social-ecological conditions.

“…As concentrações de carotenoides totais determinadas nas farinhas da amêndoa e da casca do pequi foram semelhantes aos resultados encontrados por Gonçalves et al (2020), em amostras de amêndoa de baru e polpa de bocaiuva. Estudos apontam que fatores como clima e incidência solar estão diretamente relacionados com o teor de carotenoides, sendo a incidência solar capaz de favorecer a biossíntese de carotenoides.…”

“…A bioacessibilidade é definida como a fração de componentes liberados pela matriz alimentar que se torna disponível para absorção após o processo de digestão (Minekus et al, 2014) e a quantificação dessa fração bioacessível pode ser feita por métodos in vivo e in vitro, sendo os in vitro comumente utilizados, em virtude do baixo custo. Estes métodos permitem um controle das etapas do processo de digestão gastrointestinal, possibilitando uma previsão efetiva da fração bioacessível e posterior indicação de estudos in vivo (Gonçalves et al, 2020).…”

Resumo Este trabalho objetivou avaliar a bioacessibilidade in vitro de α-caroteno, β-caroteno, licopeno e de compostos fenólicos, e a capacidade antioxidante em farinhas de amêndoa, polpa e casca do fruto pequi. Além disso, inter-relacionar estes resultados com a atividade de água, acidez e parâmetros de cor, por meio da análise de componentes principais. Os frutos foram coletados no estado de Mato Grosso, sendo higienizados, descascados, despolpados e retiradas as amêndoas. A quantificação das concentrações totais e bioacessíveis dos carotenoides e compostos fenólicos e a capacidade antioxidante foram feitas por espectrofotometria UV-Visível. Os ensaios de bioacessibilidade in vitro foram feitos por meio de três etapas: digestão salivar, gástrica e intestinal. As maiores concentrações de α-caroteno (63,81 µg/g), β-caroteno (59,83 µg/g) e licopeno (40,66 µg/g) foram obtidas para farinha da polpa do pequi. Porém, as maiores porcentagens de bioacessibilidade de α-caroteno (59,69%), β-caroteno (96,14%) e licopeno (44,13%) foram encontradas na farinha da amêndoa. Os teores de compostos fenólicos totais foram: 210,50, 402,21 e 9475,69 mg GAE/100g, para as farinhas de amêndoa, polpa e casca, respectivamente, sendo a maior porcentagem de bioacessibilidade (86,68%) encontrada na farinha da polpa. A farinha da casca do pequi apresentou maior capacidade antioxidante (EC50) 45,71 g/g de DPPH. Os maiores resultados de L* (42,19), a* (4,17), b* (8,39) e acidez titulável (17,83 mL NaOH/100 g) foram verificados na farinha da polpa e o menor pH (3,34), na farinha da casca. A análise de componentes principais indicou que o pH e a acidez titulável podem influenciar na bioacessibilidade de compostos fenólicos e carotenoides, e na capacidade antioxidante. Os resultados sugerem que as farinhas do pequi apresentam compostos bioativos bioacessíveis e boa capacidade antioxidante, e podem ser uma alternativa tecnológica no enriquecimento de produtos alimentícios.

“…These components are added to synthetic oral, gastric, and intestinal fluids and are combined with different foods or ingredients at 37 °C to facilitate oral-gastrointestinal digestion. In vivo, the released and partially digested nutrients are further metabolized by enzymes secreted by enterocytes in the intestine before being absorbed and circulated in the blood [ 13 , 17 , 18 ]. Therefore, in addition to in vitro oral-gastrointestinal digestion assays, cell culture models are also used to predict the intestinal absorption of digested nutrients from the digesta collected in vitro [ 17 , 19 ].…”

Edible Halophytes with Functional Properties: In Vitro Protein Digestibility and Bioaccessibility and Intestinal Absorption of Minerals and Trace Elements from Australian Indigenous Halophytes

et al. 2023

Halophytes are considered emerging functional foods as they are high in protein, minerals, and trace elements, although studies investigating halophyte digestibility, bioaccessibility, and intestinal absorption are limited. Therefore, this study investigated the in vitro protein digestibility, bioaccessibility and intestinal absorption of minerals and trace elements in saltbush and samphire, two important Australian indigenous halophytes. The total amino acid contents of samphire and saltbush were 42.5 and 87.3 mg/g DW, and even though saltbush had a higher total protein content overall, the in vitro digestibility of samphire protein was higher than the saltbush protein. The in vitro bioaccessibility of Mg, Fe, and Zn was higher in freeze-dried halophyte powder compared to the halophyte test food, suggesting that the food matrix has a significant impact on mineral and trace element bioaccessibility. However, the samphire test food digesta had the highest intestinal Fe absorption rate, whereas the saltbush digesta exhibited the lowest (37.7 vs. 8.9 ng/mL ferritin). The present study provides crucial data about the digestive “fate” of halophyte protein, minerals, and trace elements and increases the understanding of these underutilized indigenous edible plants as future functional foods.
