摘要

Purpose of Review

The main objective of this review is to compile the most relevant information about jabuticaba, particulary its composition with focus on bioactive compounds and potential biological effects across different fruit components. It also examines the consumption of the fruit and derived food products, along with recent studies on its utilization and the possible applications of its by-products, such us peel and seeds.

Recent Findings

Jabuticaba remains underexplored by the industry and its pulp is the only commercially valued part. As a result, the peel and seeds are largely unrecognized and underutilized, representing a great challenge for researches and industry fields.

Summary

Jabuticaba, a fruit native to Brazil, is highly appreciated for fresh consumption, with a high concentration of bioactive constituents, particularly phenolic compounds. However, the fruit has great potential for utilization, especially giving that its peel and seed have high levels of phenolic compounds that are associated with biological activities, including antioxidant capacity, prebiotic potential, among other bioactivities. However, there are still many gaps regarding the biological functionalities and the potential for its integral use.
