Feed is one of the most basic and primordial needs of the human being, since food not only ensures organic satiety for the physiological maintenance of the body, but also plays an important role in sociocultural constructions as well as the forms of organization of agriculture itself all around the world. In addition, the incidence of chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs; metabolic syn…
These project aims to catalogue these bioactive compounds through a combination of chemoinformatics analyses, comprehensive data mining, and de-novo discovery and structural characterization of novel compounds. A comprehensive digitalized library of compounds will increase the knowledge and potential use of Brazilian native crops for the development of novel supplements/food with document…

Noncommunicable Chronic Diseases (NCDs) are today a global concern due to economic and public health losses worldwide. Among the NCDs, diabetes mellitus stands out mainly for the high mortality rates, besides to the social and economic repercussions. Within this context, there is a growing demand for foods that can bring health benefits, as much scientific evidence has shown that adopting…
The present project aiming to cover the phenolic composition and the potential biological properties of pitanga (Eugenia calycina Cambess) berry from Cerrado, an unknown and underexplored Brazilian fruit. Firstly, we will study the extraction of phenolic compounds from different parts (pulp, leaves and seeds) of pitanga using emergent extraction technologies, namely Pressurized Liquid Ext…
Wound Healing is a process composed of three interdependent phases. The phases are inflammation, proliferation and remodeling. In each phase there are cells such as lymphocytes, leukocytes and macrophages, as well as mediators like cytokines. Additionally, antioxidants act combating free radicals present in the site of the injury scar and increasing the efficiency of the process through t…

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) currently represent a serious public health problem worldwide. Among the NCDs, diabetes mellitus stands out mainly for its high mortality rates, in addition to its social and economic repercussions. Within this context, the consumption of vegetables is highly recommended because such foods, in addition to nourishing, can provide important bioactive compoun…
Flavonoids have shown important biological potential, such as antidiabetic activity, to human health. Scientific evidence suggests that the daily intake of foods containing flavonoids may reduce the incidence of chronic degenerative diseases. Flavonoids and their metabolites have been shown to be capable of modulating the gut microbiota towards the healthy microbiota, stimulate pancreatic…
Biosurfactants are amphiphilic compounds produced by living organisms. Bacillus subtilis produces surfactin, a natural powerful surface-active agent. Interest in its industrial and environmental applications constantly increases, however due to high production costs, its commercial use is impracticable. Agroindustrial wastes could be an alternative of low cost substrates, besides, the pur…
