Drying of Acerola (Malpighia emarginata D. C.) by-Product: Evolution of Active Compounds in Function of Time
Braz. arch. biol. technol; 64 (), 2021
Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the behavior of active compounds concentration present in the industrial by-product of acerola during drying using convective dehydration at 40, 50 and 60 °C. For this, flavones and flavonols, total proanthocyanidins, vitamin C, total phenolic content...
Fruit quality of west indian cherry irrigated with saline waters under combinations of nitrogen/potassium fertilization
Biosci. j. (Online); 36 (4), 2020
West Indian cherry stands out among the fruits cultivated for the pharmacological and alimentary importance, but its quality can be affected by irrigation water salinity and fertilization management. In this context, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of irrigation water of different salinities and ...

Herbaspirillum seropedicae as a degrading bacterium of monofluoroacetate: effects of its inoculation in goats by ingesting Amorimia septentrionalis and the concentrations of this compound in plants sprayed with the bacterium
Pesqui. vet. bras; 39 (10), 2019
Herbaspirillum seropedicae is a nitrogen-fixing bacterium capable of using toxic compounds as a source of carbon. Bacteria with this capacity can be used to make animals resistant to plant poisoning containing monofluoroacetate (MFA), such as Amorimia septentrionalis. The aim of this study was to evaluat...
Photosynthesis, photochemical efficiency and growth of west indian cherry cultivated with saline waters and nitrogen fertilization
Biosci. j. (Online); 35 (1), 2019
In the semi-arid region of Northeast Brazil, water salinity is one of the main abiotic factors limiting crop growth and development. However, given the water scarcity affecting this region, the use of waters with moderate to high salt contents becomes necessary to irrigate crops....
Saline water and potassium fertilization in cultivation of grafted west indian cherry ˜BRS 366 Jaburu
Biosci. j. (Online); 35 (1), 2019
Agricultural exploitation in the semi-arid region of Northeast Brazil depends on the use of irrigation to guarantee safe production of crops. Nevertheless, the waters commonly used in this region have high levels of salts and require management strategies that make their use possible in agr...
Ecophysiology of west indian cherry irrigated with saline water under phosphorus and nitrogen doses
Biosci. j. (Online); 35 (1), 2019
The quantitative and qualitative scarcity of water resources is a frequent problem in the semi-arid region of the Brazilian Northeast. The availability of water for irrigation with high content of dissolved salts is common, affecting the growth and development of the crops. Thu...
Evaluation of resistance to natural poisoning by Amorimia septentrionalis in goats which had received sodium monofluoroacetate degrading bacteria
Pesqui. vet. bras; 38 (10), 2018
Amorimia septentrionalis is an important sodium monofluoroacetate (MFA) containing plant that causes sudden death in ruminants in northeastern Brazil. MFA degrading bacteria are being used in the prevention against poisoning by this plant. The aim of this study was to evaluate if goats which had per os r...
Antioxidant extract counteracts the effects of aging on cortical spreading depression and oxidative stress in the brain cortex
Acta cir. bras; 33 (6), 2018
Abstract Purpose: To investigate the effects of Murici extract on the brain excitability-dependent phenomenon known as cortical spreading depression (CSD) and on brain oxidative stress. Methods: Adult and aged Wistar rats were supplemented with murici extract (150 mg/kg/day or 300 mg/kg/day) by gavage...
