Abstract
⺠Antioxidant capacities of the fruit pulp of “açai” (Euterpe precatoria Mart.) were evaluated by chemical/cell based assays. ⺠Anti-inflammatory activity of polyphenol-enriched extract of this açaà fruit pulp was evaluated by SEAP reporter assay. ⺠Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of this açaà fruit pulp were superior to that of Euterpe oleracea Mart. ⺠Carotenoids in this açaà fruit pulp were much higher than that in Euterpe oleracea Mart.
