PRODUCTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF BIOACTIVE EXTRACT OF CAMU-CAMU (Myrciaria dubia)
Keywords:
Extract, Fruit, Antioxidants, Camu-camuAbstract
The present study aims to describe the production and characterization of the antioxidant activity of camu-camu extract (Myrciaria dubia), from fruit collected in Rio Branco, Acre, Western Brazilian Amazon Region. A study was carried out based on the production process of the ethanolic extract, with the extraction steps, along with the main analyzes of the antioxidant capacity, with the results of DPPH, FOLIN, FRAP and ORAC.
