Resumo: The Azadirachta indica A. Juss, better known as Neem (Meliaceae family), is a fruit which have been identified over 40 terpenoids. These have against insects, the most efficient of them azadirachtin. Knowing this, it is important to characterize the fruits of Neem, thus verifying its composition. Was collected 180 Neem fruits in two maturation stages (green and mature). The experimental design used was completely randomized with 2 treatments composed by maturation stages green and mature. We used 80 fruits of Neem to each stage of maturation with the plot being composed of 4 replications of 20 fruits. It can be concluded that the nim has a high content of carbohydrates (in two maturation stages), which has considerable soluble solids concentration, with emphasis to the mature fruit, and yet, high energy value. It was possible to observe from these results, that is necessary to do the fruit toxicological study, to know if it is possible to use it for human consumption, whether in the food industry or the gastronomy as an NCFP (non-conventional food plant), for example, or the isolation of the compound.

Juss, mejor conocida como Neem (familia Meliaceae), es una fruta donde se han identificado más de 40 terpenoides. Estos tienen acción contra los insectos, el más eficiente de los cuales es la azadiractina. Sabiendo esto y para verificar su composición, es importante caracterizar los frutos de Neem. Se recolectaron 180 frutos de Neem en dos etapas de maduración (verde y madura). Se utilizó un diseño completamente al azar con 2 tratamientos compuestos por etapas de maduración verde y madura. Se utilizaron 80 frutos de Neem para cada etapa de maduración, con la trama compuesta de 4 repeticiones de 20 frutos. Se puede concluir que el Neem tiene un alto contenido de carbohidratos (en las dos etapas de maduración), que tiene una concentración considerable de sólidos solubles, con énfasis en la fruta madura y, aún, un alto valor energético. Y que a partir de estos resultados, es necesario el estudio toxicológico de la fruta, para saber si es posible utilizarla para consumo humano, ya sea en la industria alimentaria o en la gastronomía como PANC (planta alimenticia no convencional), por ejemplo, o para el aislamiento de compuestos.O Azadirachta indica A. Juss, mais conhecida por Nim (família Meliaceae), é um fruto onde já foram identificados mais de 40 terpenóides. Esses possuem ação contra insetos, sendo o mais eficiente deles a azadiractina. Sabendo disso e a fim de verificação da sua composição, torna-se importante a caracterização dos frutos do Nim. Coletou-se 180 frutos de Nim em dois estádios de maturação (verde e maduro). Foi utilizado o delineamento inteiramente casualizado com 2 tratamentos compostos pelos estádios de maturação verde e maduro. Após feita a seleção, utilizou-se 80 frutos de Nim para cada estádio de maturação com a parcela sendo composta por 4 repetições de 20 frutos. Pode-se concluir que o Nim possui um elevado teor de carboidratos (nos dois estádios de maturação), tem considerável concentração de sólidos solúveis com destaque para o fruto maduro e ainda, elevado valor energético.  Foi possível observar a partir desses resultados, que se faz necessário o estudo toxicológico do fruto, para saber se é possível utiliza-lo para o consumo humano, seja na indústria alimentícia ou na gastronomia como uma PANC (planta alimentícia não convencional), por exemplo, ou para o isolamento de compostos.Research, Society and Development2020-05-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/394610.33448/rsd-v9i7.3946Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 No. 7; e274973946Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 Núm. 7; e274973946Research, Society and Development; v. 9 n. 7; e2749739462525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/3946/3433Copyright (c) 2020 Clarissa Maia de Aquino, Lunian Fernandes Moreira, Ana Hérica de Lima Mendes, Nayanne Lima dos Santos, Pahlevi Augusto de Souzainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAquino, Clarissa Maia deMoreira, Lunian FernandesMendes, Ana Hérica de LimaSantos, Nayanne Lima dosSouza, Pahlevi Augusto de2020-08-20T18:05:03Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/3946Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:27:58.208892Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
