S. aQuality control of the buriti oil (Mauritia flexuosa L. f.) for use in 3-phase oil formulation for skin hydration.h[electronic resource] c2018 aIntroduction: The Buriti (Mauritia flexuosa L. f.) is a Brazilian native palm tree. Its fruit has a hard shell and scaly covering a soft and oily pulp. Buriti oil is rich in oleic acid, also being considered natural source of beta-carotene, one of the most powerful antioxidants, becoming an excellent alternative for the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industry. Methods: The fruits collected in the State Forest Antimary (Bujari city, Acre - Brazil) were processed, dried and then the oil was extracted by cold mechanical pressing. Chromatographic analyzes and the following physico-chemical analyses, according to the AOCS norms, were performed: Acid Index (AI), Peroxide Index (PI) and Saponification Index (SI). Samples of different batches were submitted to the gas chromatograph. Results: After verified the excellent quality of the oil, a formulation of a three-phase oil for the skin hydration was prepared. From the physical and chemical analyzes, the average results for each parameter were compared with them limit by the RDC-270 ANVISA standard. Conclusion: These results demonstrated that the analyzed oils have great composition for using in cosmetics; it is an excellent raw material for the production of three-phase oil, when accompanied with other elements, such as mineral oil and propylene glycol, which has the capacity of hydration and smoothness of the skin. aChromatography aMauritia flexuosa aPhysicochemical properties aVegetable oil aBuriti aCromatografia aExtração aÓleo Vegetal aPropriedade Físico-Química a3-phase oil aAceite vegetal aAcre aAmazonia Occidental aAmazônia Ocidental aBujari (AC) aFloresta Antártica aHidratação da pele aHidratación de la piel aIndústria cosmética aÓleo trifásico aPropiedades fisicoquímicas aSkin hydration aWestern Amazon1 aFREITAS, P.
