Resumen
Descripción
Amazon fig is an underexplored non-conventional food plant native to the Amazon region. The objective of this study was to determine its physicochemical properties, cytotoxicity, and chemical composition. The highest total phenolic content was observed in the hydroethanolic extract (709.5 mg GAE/g), which was associated with significant antioxidant potential against DPPHradical dot (1539.1 μmol TE/g) and ABTSradical dot+ (1994.9 μmol TE/g) radicals. No cytotoxic effects were observed in the tested cell lines.
