Introduction: Physical exercise are related to high oxygen consumption, leading to increase on reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and subsequent oxidative stress. Concomitantly, physical training can improve the antioxidant defense systems, reducing the deleterious activity of ROS. The yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) has several bioactive compounds in its composition, providing important antioxidant activity in improving defense systems and reducing the damage caused by ROS. Few studies related to yerba mate with antioxidant effects during exercise. Objective: Evaluate whether the consumption-based drink yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) is able to increase the total antioxidant performance (TAP) after an exhaustive test on a treadmill. Methods: The sample counted with 15 female soccers players from Botucatu-SP female soccer team with a mean age of 22.1 ± 4.2 years. For laboratory tests , it was evaluated: triglycerides (TG), total cholesterol (TC) and fractions, glucose and gamma-GT were dosed by dry chemistry (Vitros® System, Johnson & Johnson). LDL-cholesterol was obtained by Friedwald formula. Total antioxidant performance (TAP) was obtained by the method of fluorescence assay for the measurement of plasma. Weight, height and body mass index (IMC) were measured, percentage of body fat was obtained by bioeletrical impedance analysis (Biodinâmics, modelo 450, USA). Arterial blood pressure was checked by auscultatory method and cardiorespiratory fitness was determined by ergoespirometric test (Ramp Protocol). Maltodextrin was supplemented (30 g in 400 ml) 30 minutes after M0 with placebo (400 ml) or mate (5 g in 400 ml of water). Statistical analysis: ANOVA for repeated measures followed by Tukey's test set, p<0.05. Results: There was a decrease in the pH after exhaustive testing for water and tea (p<0.0001), the same was observed for bicarbonate (p<0.0001). In both groups pO₂ increased for ...

The yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) is composed of bioactive that interfere with lipid metabolism. The objective was to evaluate if daily consumption of mate tea (MT) change the lipid deposits and dyslipidemia caused by excessive consumption of sucrose. Thirty male Wistar rats (40 days old) were divided into four groups: Group C - free access to commercial chow and deionized water; S - free access to commercial food, water and sucrose solution 30% (w/v) in water; MTS and deionized - free access to commercial feed solution, water, 30% sucrose (w/v) and treated with daily infusion of MT (soluble mate Leão Júnior®) via orogastric tube at a dose of 100 mg/kg/mc for 8 weeks. After the trial period the lipid profile was evaluated by the following parameters: a) direct weighing of the retroperitoneal (RP) and epididymal (EPI) adipose tissues; b) determination of plasma total cholesterol, triglycerides and HDL cholesterol concentration. The MT promoted the reduction of 1.4 times in both tissues RP and EPI in MTS group compared to group S. Treatment with MT decreased 2.7 times triglyceride in the MTS group compared with the group S. The sucrose consumption did not alter the plasma cholesterol concentration, however the consumption of MT significantly reduced total cholesterol circulating. The HDL cholesterol concentration, in the MTS group, showed higher concentration than in group S (1.3 times). MT prevents in young male rats the increase of lipid deposits and dyslipidemia caused by excessive consumption of sucrose.

Jerked beef, an industrial meat product obtained from beef with the addition of sodium chloride and curing salts and subjected to a maturing and drying process is a typical Brazilian product which has been gradually discovered by the consumer. The replacement of synthetic antioxidants by natural substances with antioxidant potential due to possible side effects discovered by lab tests, consumer health, is being implemented by the meat industry. This study aimed to evaluate the lipid oxidation of jerked beef throughout the storage period by replacing the sodium nitrite by natural extracts of propolis and Yerba Mate. For jerked beef processing brisket was used as raw material processed in 6 different formulations: formulation 1 (control - in nature), formulation 2 (sodium nitrite - NO), formulation 3 (Yerba Mate - EM), formulation 4 (propolis extract - PRO), formulation 5 (sodium nitrite + Yerba Mate - MS + NO), formulation 6 (propolis extract + sodium nitrite - PRO + NO). The raw material was subjected to wet salting, dry salting (tombos), drying at 25°C, packaging and storage in BOD 25°C. Samples of each formulation were taken every 7 days for analysis of lipid oxidation by the TBARS method. In all formulations, were carried out analysis of chemical composition at time zero and sixty days of storage. The water activity analysis and color (L *, a *, b *) was monitored at time zero, thirty and sixty days of storage. The Salmonella spp count, Coliform bacteria, Termotolerant coliforms and coagulase positive staphylococci were taken at time zero and sixty days. The activity of natural antioxidants evaluated shows the decline of lipid oxidation up to 2.5 times compared with the product in natura and presented values with no significant differences between treatments NO and EM, confirming the potential in minimize lipid oxidation of Jerked beef throughout the 60 days of storage. The results also showed that yerba mate has a higher antioxidant capacity compared to the propolis except the PRO + NO formulation. When associated with yerba mate with sodium nitrate, TBARS values become close to values obtained only for the control samples with the addition of sodium nitrite. The proximal composition of the formulations remained within the standards required in the IN nº22/2000 for jerked beef. Samples that differ significantly at 5% are directly related to the established type of formulation. The count of microorganisms was within the standards of the DRC nº12/2001 required for matured meat products. The intensity of the red (a*) decreased with storage time and increase the intensity of yellow (b*) indicates a darkening of the product despite L* also have been increased. These results suggest that yerba mate is a good alternative to meat industry in reducing healing addition salts when associated with another antioxidant.

A erva-mate (Ilex paraguariensis) é uma espécie arbórea, nativa da América do Sul e largamente consumida na forma de chá. Em ervais debilitados, a poda de recuperação é utilizada para a retomada do vigor vegetativo, bem como o anelamento, os quais estimulam a emissão de brotações. O presente trabalho teve como objetivos verificar a influência do anelamento em combinação com a aplicação de diferentes concentrações de benzil-amino-purina (BAP) e da decepa em diferentes alturas na emissão de brotações por matrizes de erva-mate de 17 e mais de 80 anos de idade, no inverno/2006 e verão/2007. O anelamento foi realizado com motosserra a uma altura de 30 cm do solo, seguido do tratamento com BAP, veiculado em pasta de vaselina, nas concentrações de 0, 150 e 300 mg Kg-1. A decepa foi realizada também com motosserra, sendo os tratamentos três alturas de corte: 15, 30 e 60 cm do solo. Após 6 e 12 meses da instalação foram avaliadas as seguintes variáveis: porcentagem de matrizes brotadas, número de brotações por árvore (ou cepa), comprimento e diâmetro das brotações. Os resultados obtidos mostram que a erva-mate tem boa capacidade de brotação, para as duas técnicas utilizadas. A eficiência na emissão de novos brotos no anelamento é influenciada pela idade da planta matriz e pela estação do ano. Os maiores valores foram obtidos no inverno/2006 e com matrizes de 17 anos de idade, chegando a 95,84% de indução de brotações. Na técnica da decepa, não foi observada influência da época de instalação na porcentagem de brotação, mas a idade da matriz e a altura do corte foram significativos para esta variável. Os maiores valores foram obtidos com matrizes de 17 anos e altura de corte a 60 cm do solo.

ABSTRACT The red mite Oligonychus yothersi is one of the main pests of yerba mate in Brazil The damage this mite causes leads to leaf drop and decreased production. There are no registered acaricides for use in yerba mate; thus, laboratory and field experiments were performed to evaluate the effect of azadirachtin (Azamax ® , 250mL 100L -1 ) for the control of the red mite in yerba mate. In the laboratory, azadirachtin was applied to yerba mate leaf disks before (residual contact) and after (direct contact) infestation with 15 newly emerged red mite adult females. The effect of azadirachtin on mite behavior was evaluated in arenas with treated and untreated yerba mate leaves, and the number of mites in both areas was recorded. Ovicidal action was evaluated by applying azadirachtin to eggs and recording egg hatching. In the field, two applications of the product were performed (1L spray liquid plant-1) with a 7-day interval. The numbers of living mites were evaluated at 7, 14 and 21 days following the first application on randomly collected leaves. It was observed 86.6 and 91.4% of mortality following 24h of residual and direct contact, respectively. Repellent (62% of individuals leaving the treated area) and ovicidal (98.9% decrease in egg hatching) effects were also observed. The mite population in the yerba mate crop field had decreased by 59.6% at 14 days after the first application of azadirachtin. The results show the potential of azadirachtin for the control of O. yothersi in yerba mate in Brazil.Key words: neem, alternative control, yerba mate pest. RESUMO O ácaro Oligonychus yothersi é uma das principais pragas da cultura da erva-mate. Seus danos levam à queda das folhas e redução da produção. Não há acaricidas registrados para uso na erva-mate e por isso foram realizados experimentos em laboratório e a campo para avaliar o efeito da azadiractina (Azamax®, 250mL 100L-1), visando ao controle da espécie na cultura da erva mate. Em laboratório, o produto foi aplicado em discos de folha de erva-mate antes (contato residual) e depois (contato direto) da infestação com 15 fêmeas adultas recém-emergidas do ácaro vermelho. A ação do produto no comportamento do ácaro foi avaliada em arenas com folhas de erva-mate tratadas e não tratadas, registrando-se o número de ácaros em ambas as áreas. Além disso, a ação ovicida foi avaliada, aplicando-se o produto sobre ovos e registrando a sua eclosão. No campo, foram realizadas duas aplicações do produto (1L de calda planta-1), espaçadas sete dias. Avaliou-se o número de ácaros vivos, aos 7, 14 e 21 dias após a primeira aplicação, em folhas coletadas aleatoriamente. Observou-se ação acaricida (86,6 e 91,4% de mortalidade após 24h, respectivamente, por contato residual e direto; repelência (62% dos indivíduos abandonando a área tratada) e ação ovicida (redução de 98,9% na eclosão). Na lavoura de erva-mate, a redução populacional do ácaro foi de 59.6% aos 14 dias após a primeira aplicação do produto. Os resultados demonstram o potencial de emprego da azadiractina para o controle de O. yothersi na cultura da erva-mate.Palavra-chave: nim, controle alternativo, praga da erva-mate.
