This study aimed to investigate the antioxidant activity of extracts obtained from jabuticaba (Myrciaria cauliflora) PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Jabuticaba seeds are usually discarded as waste by food industries, but they are rich in bioactive products and present interesting biological properties. Herein, we demonstrated that their extracts show remarkable antioxidant power against different reactive oxygen species, which are involved in several human pathologies. In this way, this by-product can be further used in the development of products to protect the human body against diseases related to oxidative stress.
