Antioxidant capacity and chemical composition of passion fruit peel (
Passiflora edulis).
Aril removal has been used as promisor method to increase seeds germination with several results in
Passiflora species (Pereira and Dias, 2000; Martins et al., 2006; Osipi et al., 2011; Silva et al., 2015).
(2004) reportaron un total de 95 especies para el genero
Passiflora; pero, en los ultimos anos se han ido adicionando nuevos taxones (Boza 2014, Leiva & Tantalean 2015, 2016).
(2013), evaluating growth, mineral composition and total phenotypes of
Passiflora genotypes as a function of nitrogen sources, concluded that the
Passiflora edulis genotype presented a higher leaf area among the compared genotypes.
Although there are few studies evaluating the use of yellow passion fruit bark (
Passiflora edulis) in the treatment of metabolic syndrome (MS), results available in the literature are promising as a clinical alternative for its use as an adjuvant in the control of metabolic disorders associated with this pathology.
Aiming to evaluate the applicability of the method, samples of
Passiflora alata tinctures were fortified with FEN.

Moreover, a recent study showed that a pectin isolated from fresh peels of
Passiflora glandulosa Cav has hypoglycemic effects in diabetic mice (Sousa et al., 2015).
