Timber industry of Amazonas state (Brazil) contribute with the production of great amount of residues. This paper aims to indicating end-uses for this forest species pau-rainha (Brosimum rubescens Taubert, Moraceae). The residues discharged during the mechanical processing in timber production were used as manufactured goods such as: musical instruments and decorative articles generating less wastes in sawmills. They were carried sawdust of the heartwood and sapwood and extraction by maceration with hexane and methanol. The heartwood extractive yield was 19.87% and content of xanthyletin (2,2-dimethylchromene coumarin) was 2.35% with basis dry mass. It was not detected the coumarin in extracts of sapwood. Xanthyletin is reported as antiplatelet, antifungal and herbicide and some its derivatives have a leukaemic cells lineage activities. The proposal of adequate end-uses of "pau-rainha" as manufacture-goods is a great social benefit and the search of secondary metabolites is quite promising it can be transformed into novel products. |
