Ora-pro-nobis - chemical characterization and sourcing of crude extract through different extraction methods: a review

Abstract: Ora-pro-nobis has its center of origin in tropical America. It is found in Brazil, from the Northeast to Rio Grande do Sul. The plant belongs to the Cactaceae family, Pereskia genus. Its leaves and fruits contain bioactive compounds that may have expectorant properties and can be used to alleviate inflammatory processes in traditional medicine. Despite its richness, the plant is still little used by the general population and the food and pharmaceutical industries. Some extraction methods are used to obtain bi… Show more

“…After peeling, ora-pro-nobis fruit can be eaten fresh or used in juices, jams, and liqueurs. The nutritious pulp contains high levels of bioactive compounds, including proteins, vitamins, carotenoids, flavonoids, and polyphenols (Agostini-Costa et al, 2012;Silva et al, 2018;Silva et al, 2019;Moraes et al, 2021;Carnevalli et al, 2022). This fruit is renowned for its therapeutic properties and has been used extensively for medicinal purposes.…”

“…Special attention will be devoted to the properties of their bioactives and their applications to real food products. Unlike the most recent reviews published on ora-pro-nobis [4,15], the present work attempts to present a balanced account of both the methods used for obtaining extracts from the diverse parts of the plants (leaf, fruit, seed, etc.) and the results that were obtained in terms of their applicability to foods and other products with biological activities.…”
