Conteúdo: | Background: Jerivá is a native palm tree from Brazil, very abundant in the rural environment and widely observed in the urban area.Its fruits can be consumed in fresh and drink form. Despite this context there are few studies on the species, especially whenportraying the nutritional value of its fruit. This research aims to investigate jerivá fruits in three ripening stages.Methods: The fruits were harvested in a domestic orchard in Campos dos Goytacazes-RJ, in three ripening stages, according to thecolor: green (green peel), intermediate (yellowish green peel) and ripe (orange peel). The fruits were characterized in terms ofphysicochemical and bioactive composition.Result: This fruit has a low source of ascorbic acid in all evaluated stages, but has high levels for yellow flavonoids and totalextractable polyphenols when mature (23.07 mg/100 g and 596.95 mg GAE/100 g, respectively). Considering the relevance of thisfruit species and the few researches at national level, it is necessary to evaluate the physicochemical and bioactive characteristics ofthe fruits of Jerivá, in order to quantify particularities regarding the detailed composition, guaranteeing its potential for use.
