Abstract

The wood industry in the region of Madre de Dios, Peru, is one of the most important economic activities and produces a large amount of waste, including bark, potential sources of tannins. The objective was to extract and physicochemically characterize tannins from the bark of mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla) and cedar (Cedrela odorata) collected from mature trees, in localized populations of the district of Tambopata - Madre de Dios. The tannic extracts were obtained by successive extraction with saline aqueous solution, and subjected to analysis to determine their solubility, color, density, and tannic compound identification tests. The results showed that the mahogany bark presented a higher concentration of tannins than that of the cedar, reaching both 46% and 42%, respectively; in addition, the tannic extract of the cedar bark presented a density of 0.972 g/mL and that of mahogany 0.976 g/mL. In conclusion, mahogany and cedar bark are potential sources of pyrogallic-type tannins for the natural products industry.
