ABSTRACT
Objetivo: Determinar el contenido de compuestos bioactivos y la capacidad antioxidante de los frutos tumbo (Passiflora mollissima) y cerezo (Prunus serotina). Materiales y métodos: Estudio analítico, experimental, longitudinal y prospectivo. Los frutos cerezo y tumbo se recolectaron en las regiones de Cusco, Moquegua y Arequipa. La técnica de Folin-Ciocalteu fue empleada para determinar el contenido de fenoles, y el cloruro de aluminio se utilizó para calcular los flavonoides. La actividad antioxidante se evaluó mediante las técnicas Ferric Reducing Ability of Plasma (FRAP), 2,2-difenil-picril-hidrazil (DPPH) y sustancias reactivas al ácido tiobarbitúrico (TBARS). Para estudiar el efecto hepatoprotector de las frutas, utilizamos ratas albinas que se clasificaron en un grupo control negativo, un grupo control positivo y cuatro grupos experimentales. Resultados: La mayor concentración de fenoles totales y flavonoides se encontró en el tumbo de la región Cusco (Quechua) (fenoles totales: 584,94 ± 134,62 mg EAG / 100 g y flavonoides :445,62 ± 7,94 mg EQ / 100 g). Para el radical DPPH, el valor IC50 del tumbo de la región Arequipa (Yunga) fue 0,41 ± 0,01 mg / mL. El tumbo de la región Cusco (Quechua) mostró el valor FRAP más alto (8,38 ± 0,32 mmol Fe2 + / 100 g). El cerezo de la región de Arequipa (Yunga) presentó la mayor concentración de fenoles totales (181,81 ± 34,1 mg EAG / 100 g) y flavonoides (205,18 ± 77,8 mg EQ / 100 g). El cerezo de Arequipa (Yunga) mostró una actividad antioxidante significativa al DPPH (2,1 ± 0,01 mg / mL), mientras que la capacidad antioxidante del cerezo de la región Cusco (Quechua), evaluada con la técnica FRAP, alcanzó un valor de 1,59 ± 0,2 mmol Fe2+/100 g. Las diferencias observadas fueron estadísticamente significativas. El tumbo mostró un mejor efecto hepatoprotector que el cerezo. Conclusiones: El tumbo de la región Cusco (Quechua) es una fuente importante de compuestos antioxidantes y muestra una elevada capacidad antioxidante (FRAP), mientras que el cerezo de la región Arequipa (Yunga) tiene un alto contenido de compuestos antioxidantes y una mayor capacidad antioxidante (DPPH).
Objective: To determine the content of bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacity of the banana passionfruit (Passiflora mollissima) and black cherry (Prunus serotina). Materials and methods: An analytical, experimental, longitudinal and prospective study. The black cherries and banana passionfruits were collected in the Cusco, Moquegua and Arequipa regions. The content of phenols and flavonoids were determined using the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent and aluminum chloride method, respectively. The antioxidant activity was evaluated using the ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) techniques. Albino rats classified into a negative control group, a positive control group and four experimental groups were used to study the hepatoprotective effect of the fruits. Results: Banana passionfruits from the Cusco region (Quechua) showed the highest concentration of total phenols (584.94 ± 134.62 mg GAE/100 g) and flavonoids (445.62 ± 7.94 mg QE/100 g). Concerning the DPPH radical, the IC 50 value of banana passionfruits from the Arequipa region (Yunga) was found to be 0.41 ± 0.01 mg/mL. Banana passionfruits from the Cusco region (Quechua) showed the highest FRAP value (8.38 ± 0.32 mmol Fe2+/100 g). Black cherries from the Arequipa region (Yunga) had the highest concentration of total phenols (181.81 ± 34.1 mg GAE/100 g) and flavonoids (205.18 ± 77.8 mg QE/100 g). They also showed a significant antioxidant activity regarding the DPPH (2.1 ± 0.01 mg/mL), while the antioxidant capacity of black cherries from the Cusco region (Quechua), which was evaluated with the FRAP method, achieved a value of 1.59 ± 0.2 mmol Fe2+/100 g. The observed differences were statistically significant. Banana passionfruits showed a better hepatoprotective effect than black cherries. Conclusions: Banana passionfruits from the Cusco region (Quechua) are an important source of antioxidant compounds and show a high antioxidant capacity (FRAP), while black cherries from the Arequipa region (Yunga) have a high content of antioxidant compounds and a higher antioxidant capacity (DPPH).
ABSTRACT
O conhecimento das relações entre porta-enxerto e copa é vital para produção de mudas sem problemas de compatibilidade. Nesse sentido, a atividade de peroxidases e a concentração de fenóis apresentam grande importância na união entre enxerto e porta-enxerto, influenciando na resposta de compatibilidade de enxertia. Objetivou-se, neste trabalho, avaliar a compatibilidade de enxertia em mudas de pessegueiro interenxertadas, quantificando a atividade da peroxidase e a concentração dos fenóis totais em cultivares do gênero Prunus, no período de crescimento vegetativo e de repouso. Amostras da casca foram processadas e quantificadas por espectrofotometria. Os tratamentos foram a combinação de dois porta-enxertos de pessegueiro ('Okinawa' e 'Capdeboscq'), com dois interenxertos de ameixeira ('Irati' e 'Reubennel') e duas copas ('Chimarrita' e 'Coral'), mais o damasqueiro Japonês e cerejeira 'Capulin', cultivados no viveiro da Embrapa Transferência de Tecnologia, Canoinhas-SC. O delineamento experimental foi inteiramente ao acaso, com três repetições e três plantas por parcela. Concluiu-se que a atividade da peroxidase e os fenóis totais apresentaram baixa variação entre o pessegueiro e a ameixeira, sendo compatíveis entre si. A atividade da peroxidase e os fenóis totais foram superiores no período de repouso das mudas. O damasqueiro e a cerejeira apresentaram alta incompatibilidade, quando enxertados sobre porta-enxertos de pessegueiro.
The understanding of the biochemical relation between rootstock and scion is very important for the production of seedlings without incompatibility problems. The activity of peroxidases and the phenol concentration are very important to the union between scion and rootstock, influencing the graft compatibility. This work aimed to analyze the compatibility of graft in peach tree intergrafted seedlings, to determine the peroxidase activity and total phenols in cultivars of Prunus, during the vegetative growth and dormancy period. Samples of bark were processed and quantified by spectrophotometry. The treatments included the combination of two rootstocks ('Okinawa' and 'Capdeboscq'), two interstock (plum tree 'Irati' and 'Reubennel') and two scions ('Chimarrita' and 'Coral'), and the Japanese apricot and cherry 'Capulin' cultivated at Embrapa Technology Transfer Station, Canoinhas-SC. The experimental design was the completely randomized blocks with three replications, each one with three plants. The peroxidase activity and total phenols content presented low variation between the peach tree and the plum tree, being compatible among them. Tissues collected during the dormancy period showed greater peroxidase activity than tissues from vegetative phase. The Japanese apricot and cherry present high incompatibility when grafted on peach rootstock.
