  1. Extracts from jatobá (Hymenaea courbaril L.) peel and seeds: Antioxidant and antimicrobial activities and synergistic effect of extract combinations

    • Food Science and Technology International

    • In this work, the in vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial potential of hydroalcoholic extracts from the peel and seeds of jatobá fruit and the synergistic effect of their combination against pathogenic bacteria were evaluated. The 80% ethanol fruit seed extract showed a greater antioxidant potential and higher total phenolic content (5135.61 mg GAE 100 g dry residue−1) than the maximum value obtained from peel extract using 50% ethanol (2614.74 1 mg GAE 100 g dry residue−1).
