Incremental Innovation: Analytical methods and integrated techniques applied for biotechnological characterization of remaining fruit seeds in Northern Brazil

Resumo

Brazil is a multi-diverse country, that is, it has great biological diversity, which has been gradually
studied in higher education and research institutions in order to obtain greater knowledge and
consequently provide more efficiently and effectively, products, processes for the market and even
new methodologies. However, in some of these institutions, there is a certain difficulty, especially with
regard to the first biotechnological studies related to the characterization of plant materials, some still
unknown to researchers/students, which are necessary and require different methodologies that not
always are possible to be applied in the same way as other institutions, such as those in the Midwest,
South and Southeast. In this context, the objective was to define analytical methods and laboratory
techniques to be integrated and applied sequentially, with incremental innovation, for biotechnological
characterization of remaining seeds of fruits in the extreme north of Brazil, with a view to obtaining
important knowledge, useful to scientists and researchers who envision the development of assets,
processes and bioproducts of interest to society.
