In Vitro and Ex Vivo Chemopreventive Action of Mauritia flexuosa Products

Table 1

Quantification of phenols, flavonoids, carotenoids, condensed tannins, and hydrolysable tannins in the lyophilized methanolic extracts of pulp, peel, and endocarp from Mauritia flexuosa fruits.

Class of compounds	Pulp	Peel	Endocarp
Total phenols; (mg GAE/100 g)
Total flavonoids; (mg EQE/100 g)
Total carotenoids; (mg βCTE/100 g)
Hydrolysable tannins; (mg ACT/100 g)
Condensed tannins; (mg CTQ/100 g)
Ascorbic acid; (mg/100 mL)

Data were presented as mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM). compared to pulp; compared to peel; compared to endocarp by ANOVA followed by Student-Newman-Keuls test.
