Description
Summary:[Display omitted] •Fruit co-product flours are rich in dietary fibers, particularly insoluble fibers.•The flours have a good antioxidant capacity, as evaluated by DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP analyses.•They also contain phenolic compounds such as p-coumaric acid and Rutin.•Both flours presented low cytotoxicity with cell viability greater than 82%.•Flours have good functional technological capacity, with a potentially useful ingredient in the food industry. Umbu-caja and soursop from the Northeast region of Brazil are rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds and are widely processed by the fruit agroindustry. However, there is a lack of research examining the composition and nutritional/technological potential of these co-product fruits. The present study evaluated the nutritional and technological characteristics of umbu-caja and soursop co-product flours (UCF and SCF, respectively), in addition to cytotoxicity in healthy cells. The results demonstrated that they are rich in dietary fiber (approximately 53 %), low in protein (approximately 8.0 %), and have minimal moisture content (
