“…Regarding the measurements, the pulp has a higher amount of glucose, xylose and xylitol, as found in other fruits (Roesler et al, 2007). The seeds showed other types of sugars, such as arabinose, which have been previously described in H. courbaril (Dmaira et al, 2007), and cellobiose, not yet reported in Hymenaea. According to the literature, this is also the first report of the presence of xylitol in species of this genus.…”

“…Glucose and xylose have been identified previously in Hymenaea in seeds (Dmaira et al, 2007;Lima et al, 1993). A study on the pericarp of Hymenaea oblongifolia identified fructose, glucose, glucuronic acid, sorbose and sucrose (Chung et al, 1997).…”

“…This carbohydrate is related to important functions such as the control of cell expansion, effects on growth and as a reserve of carbohydrate in seeds (Fry, 1989;Hayashi, 1989;Kai & Petkowicz, 2010). Galactose, glucose, xylose and arabinose were identified in this species, derived from the degradation of this polysaccharide present in seeds of this species (Dmaira et al, 2007).…”

“…Fruits of other species of the genus were analyzed and in the pulp, rutin (Peres et al, 2013), fiber, ascorbic acid, α-tocopherol, β-sitosterol, oleic and linolenic acid (Dias et al, 2013), D-glucose, D-glucuronic acid and sucrose (Chung et al, 1997) were identified. On the seeds, D-glucose, galactose, xylose (Busato et al, 2001), arabinose (Dmaira et al, 2007), hymenain and ipomopsin (Simões et al, 2009) were important substances found. These literature data demonstrate the great medicinal and chemical…”

Phytochemical screening, Sun Protection Factor (SPF) and sugar analysis of jatobá fruits (Hymenaea martiana Hayne): A native medicinal plant from the San Francisco Valley

Hymenaea martiana is a native medicinal plant from the Caatinga, but biochemical studies of the fruit have not yet been reported. Thus, this study aimed to determine sugars and secondary metabolites, as well as assess the sunscreen potential of H. martiana fruits. The fruits were collected in Petrolina and separated into pulp and seeds. The sugar analysis investigated the presence of glucose, xylose, cellobiose, arabinose and xylitol. The determination of secondary metabolites was made through phytochemical screening and sunscreen activity was assessed with the spectrophotometric method. On the fruit pulp, carbohydrates with a great biotechnological potential were identified. The substances found in the phytochemical screening showed great antioxidant, photoprotective and medicinal potential. With the pulp extract, the sun protection factor values obtained were not significant and for the extract from the seeds, the values were 4.54 ± 0.11. Although the values found are below the recommended, the fruit extracts of H. martiana could be used in future development of sunscreen products providing several benefits to the formulation.Practical Application: Determination of sugars, metabolites and sunscreen activity from Jatobá fruits. Application in food and cosmetics industries.

“…The protein content of the PH was 5.94%, similar to those reported for hydrocolloids extracted from pulp . The protein value for SH was 7.91%, a value higher than the reported for hydrocolloids extracted from seed endosperm (Martin et al, 2003;Omaira, de Pinto Gladys, Maritza, Omaira, & Lilian, 2007); however, Kai and Olivera reported that this content of proteins may be due to the extraction time, which favors the extraction of structural proteins from the seeds.…”

The aim of this work was to isolate pulp (PH) and seed hydrocolloids (SH) of the fruit of Hymenaea corbaril L. and determinate chemical, functional and rheological properties, as a proposal of a new attractive product for functional applications in food systems. Both hydrocolloids have a high content of carbohydrates, minerals and fiber. The solubility of PH was higher 94.1%. The emulsifying capacity of SH, PH and GG increases with the hydrocolloid concentration. The emulsions showing a good stabilization stability with drop sizes of 5-20 μm. The emulsions PH and SH at 1% were higher stability than guar gum (GG), due to slower down the cremation index after 3 days of storage at 35 and 40°C. The hydrocolloids exhibited a pseudoplastic behavior at concentrations of 0.5-2%. The elastic behavior suggests its application to edible films, while the viscous behavior suggests its incorporation in food systems.
