Abstract
ABSTRACT Condensed tannins are chemical compounds derived from the secondary metabolism of plants. They are of particular interest due to their broad range of technological uses and applications. The objective of this study was to extract, quantify, and characterize by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) the bark tannins of four forest species grown in Northeast Brazil: Acacia mangium, Azadirachta indica, Mimosa tenuiflora, and Mimosa caesalpiniifolia. Bark samples were collected from 5 trees of each species grown in a five-year-old forest stand. Samples were collected, grounded, and submitted to extraction with hot water, then measured to determine total solids content (TSC), Stiasny number (SN), and condensed tannins content (CTC). FTIR spectra were acquired from tannin samples fixed in potassium bromide pellets. Among the four species, M. tenuiflora presented the highest CTC, equal to 23.4%, and the purest crude hot-water extract with SN of 91.27%. Based on FTIR characterization, tannins from M. caesalpiniifolia, A. indica, and A. mangium barks were classified as proanthocyanidins and those from M. tenuiflora bark as prodelphinidins.

A Revista Árvore é um veículo de comunicação científica da Sociedade de Investigações Florestais – SIF. O jornal é de acesso gratuito, revisado por pares, que publica bimestralmente trabalhos científicos originais no campo da Ciência Florestal. As áreas temáticas para publicação são: Ambiência e Conservação da Natureza, Manejo Florestal, Silvicultura e Tecnologia da Madeira e Utilização de Produtos Florestais.
A política editorial visa manter alta conduta ética em relação à publicação e aos seus funcionários, rigor na qualidade dos artigos científicos, seleção de revisores qualificados, respeito profissional aos autores e processo de tomada de decisão imparcial. A Revista Árvore publica artigos apenas em inglês.
Artigos de revisão podem ser publicados se houver uma discussão relevante resumindo o estado da arte sobre o assunto. A revisão estrita da literatura não é aceita.
