Fujita, A. Camu-camu ingredients: effect of drying on ellagitannins and flavonoids, and their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. 2015. 147 f. (Tese de Doutorado). Faculdade de Ciências Farmacêuticas, Universidade de São Paulo, São Paulo 2015. Camu-camu (Myrciaria dubia Mc. Vaugh) has demonstrated promising perspectives as a functional food, mainly due to high vitamin C and phenolic compounds contents, in particular ellagitannins. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different drying processes (spouted bed drying, spray-drying) at selected temperatures and carrier concentrations, comparing to freeze-drying, on the contents and composition of phenolic compounds. The pulp powders were compared in relation to phenolic profiles, ascorbic acid and proanthocyanidins contents. Further, functional health potential was evaluated such as in vitro antioxidant capacity, antimicrobial activity and inhibition of α-amylase, α-glucosidase and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). It was also investigated cellular protection and regeneration in planaria (Dugesia trigrina) model. Additionally, camu-camu powders were added into soymilk and were fermented by lactic acid bacteria (L. helveticus ATCC 12046 and L. plantarum NCDO 1193) to verify their functionality as a functional food ingredient. The results showed that drying of the pulp led to significant losses of bioactive compounds, in the order ascorbic acid>total phenolics>proanthocyanidins, and spray-drying>spouted bed drying>freeze-drying. Phenolic compounds, such as ellagitannins, ellagic acid, quercetin derivatives, syringic acid and myricetin were detected in camu-camu by LC-TOF-MS. The freeze-drying was the best technique to preserve phenolic compounds, and also antioxidant capacity and enzyme inhibition. Besides that, freeze-dried and spray-dried (6% arabic gum at 120 °C) powders were more effective against Staphylococcus aureus than ampicillin. The extracts of those powders have desmonstrated potential to cellular protection and rejuvenation in planaria model. Finally, soymilk enriched with camu-camu powders resulted in more phenolic contents, high antioxidant capacity and anti-hyperglycemia and anti-hipertension properties product. To sum up, camu-camu powder is rich in phenolic bioactive profiles has potential as part of dietary strategies in the management of early stages of type 2 diabetes and associated complications.
