Chemical Characterization and Bioaccessibility Assessment of Bioactive Compounds from Umbu (<i>Spondias tuberosa</i> A.) Fruit Peel and Pulp Flours

Umbu, a common fruit from the northeastern region of Brazil, contains many bioactive compounds not yet exploited. Thus, this study evaluated the potential of pulps and peels of mature and semi-mature umbu as a source of bioactive compounds. Trigonelline contents ranged from 1.75 to 6.14 mg/100 g, va...
