Sơ ri hay còn gọi là kim đồng nam, xơ ri vuông (danh pháp khoa học: Malpighia glabra L.), là một loài cây bụi hay cây thân gỗ nhỏ có quả nằm trong họ Sơ ri (Malpighiaceae), có nguồn gốc ở Tây Ấn và miền bắc Nam Mỹ. Nó có thể cao tới 3 m, với tán lá dày, có gai. Lá thường xanh, dạng đơn hình trứng-hình mác, dài 5-10 cm, với mép lá nhẵn. Các hoa mọc thành tán với 2-5 hoa cùng nhau, mỗi hoa có đường kính 1-1,5 cm, với 5 cánh hoa màu hồng hay đỏ.
Quả chín có màu đỏ tươi, đường kính 1 cm, chứa 2-3 hạt cứng. Nó là loại quả mọng và có vị ngọt, chứa nhiều vitamin C và các chất dinh dưỡng khác. Mặc dù nó tương tự như quả anh đào, nhưng loài cây này không có quan hệ họ hàng gì với anh đào thực thụ (chi Prunus). Quả tương tự như quả chùm ruột.
Trồng và sử dụng
Quả của nó ăn được và được tiêu thụ rộng rãi trong khu vực nguồn gốc của nó, tại các khu vực này nó được trồng rất nhiều do chứa hàm lượng vitamin C cao.
Trong thập niên 1950, một công ty sản xuất thực phẩm trẻ em cho rằng đối với trẻ em thì nước táo dễ chịu hơn so với nước cam. Công ty cũng cho rằng việc cho thêm chỉ một giọt nước sơ ri vào 230 ml nước táo sẽ cung cấp lượng vitamin C ngang với lượng tương đương nước cam.
Tại Puerto Rico, sơ ri được coi trọng đến mức ngành hải quan đã áp dụng một số biện pháp phòng ngừa đáng kể để ngăn chặn việc xuất khẩu cây sơ ri.

Malpighia emarginata is a tropical fruit-bearing shrub or small tree in the family Malpighiaceae. Common names include acerola, Barbados Cherry, West Indian Cherry[4] and Wild Crapemyrtle
Distribution
M. emarginata can be found in the southernmost parts of the contiguous United States (southern Florida[3] and the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas),[6] Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, and South America as far south as Peru and Minas Gerais in Brazil. It is cultivated in the tropics and subtropics throughout the world, including the Canary Islands, Ghana, Ethiopia, Madagascar, Zanzibar, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, India, Java, Hawaii, and Australia
Description
Acerola is an evergreen shrub or small tree with spreading branches on a short trunk. It is usually 2–3 m (6.6–9.8 ft) tall, but sometimes reaches 6 m (20 ft) in height
Leaves
The leaves are simple ovate-lanceolate, 2–8 cm (0.79–3.1 in) long, 1–4 cm (0.39–1.6 in), and are attached to short petioles. They are opposite, ovate to elliptic-lanceolate, and have entire or undulating margins. Top sides are dark green and glossy.
Flowers
Flowers are bisexual and 1–2 cm (0.39–0.79 in) in diameter. They have five[8] pale to deep pink or red[9] fringed petals, ten stamens, and six to ten glands on the calyx. There are three to five flowers per inflorescence, which are sessile or short-peduncled axillary cymes
Fruit
The fruit is a bright red drupe 1–3 cm (0.39–1.2 in) in diameter with a mass of 3–5 g (0.11–0.18 oz). Drupes are in pairs or groups of three, and each contains three triangular seeds. The drupes are juicy and very high in vitamin C and other nutrients. They are divided into three obscure lobes and are usually acid to subacid, giving them a sour taste,but may be sweet if grown well
Uses
As food
The fruit is edible and widely consumed in the species’ native area, and is cultivated elsewhere for its high vitamin C content. There is 1677.6 mg of vitamin C in 100 g of fruit.
In the 1950s, a manufacturer of baby food[which?] decided that apple juice was milder for infants than orange juice. The company claimed[citation needed] that a drop of acerola juice in an 8 oz. can of apple juice provided the amount of vitamin C of an equal amount of orange juice. A detailed nutrition facts analysis shows Acerola juice does contain 32 times the amount of vitamin C in orange juice (over 3000% as much), supporting the claim.[11]
A comparative analysis of antioxidant potency among a variety of frozen juice pulps was carried out, and included the acerola fruit. Among the eleven fruits’ pulps tested, acerola was the highest scoring domestic fruit, meaning it had the most antioxidant potency, with a TEAC (Trolox equivalent antioxidant activity) score of 53.2 mmol g.[12]
Cultivars have been developed to improve growth of the plant, disease resistance, and the size and flavor of the fruits. Sweet cultivars include ‘Manoa Sweet’, ‘Tropical Ruby’, and ‘Hawaiian Queen’, while ‘J.H. Beaumont’, ‘C.F. Rehnborn’, ‘F. Haley’, ‘Red Jumbo’, and ‘Maunawili’ are sour cultivars. The cultivars ‘A-1′, ‘B-15′, and ‘B-17′ are recommended for Puerto Rico, while ‘B-17′ and ‘Florida Sweet’ are recommended for Florida.[13]
Absolut Vodka released Absolut Los Angeles, a limited-edition spirit flavored with acerola, Açai, pomegranate, and blueberry, in July 2008.[14]
Acerola flavour is also used in Tic Tac dragées[citation needed].
In Vietnam, the most famous variety is from Gò Công district, Tiền Giang province
Other uses
Acerola is a popular bonsai subject because of its small leaf, fruit and fine ramification. It is also grown as an ornamental[15] and for hedges
Ecology
M. emarginata is a host plant for the caterpillars of the White-patched Skipper (Chiomara asychis),[16] Florida Duskywing (Ephyriades brunneus),[17] and Brown-banded Skipper (Timochares ruptifasciatus).[18] Larvae of the Acerola Weevil (Anthonomus macromalus) feed on the fruits, while adults consume young leaves

PLANT CHEMICALS
Until the plant camu-camu appeared on the scene, acerola was considered the richest known source of natural vitamin C. Oranges provide 500 to 4,000 parts per million (ppm) of vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, whereas acerola has been found in tests to provide ascorbic acid in a range of 16,000 to 172,000 ppm1,2 Acerola can contain up to 4.5% vitamin C, compared to 0.05% in a peeled orange. The vitamin C content of acerola varies depending on ripeness, season, climate, and locality.3 As the fruit begins to ripen, it loses a great deal of its vitamin content; for this reason, most commercially-produced acerola is harvested while still green.
Acerola also provides twice as much magnesium, pantothenic acid, and potassium as oranges. It also contains vitamin A (4,300 to 12,500 IU/100 g, compared to approximately 11,000 IU for raw carrots) and thiamine, riboflavin, and niacin in concentrations comparable to those in other fruits.
Thus far, 150 other constituents have been identified in acerola.4 In addition to ascorbic acid and the other vitamins mentioned above, acerola contains 3-methyl-3-butenol, dehydroascorbic acid, calcium, dextrose, diketogulonic acid, fructose, furfural, hexadecanoic acid, iron, limonene, l-malic acid, phosphorus, protein, and sucrose.
BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES AND CLINICAL RESEARCH
Acerola has not been the subject of much clinical research since it is mainly consumed as a food, rather than used as an herbal remedy. In one in vitro study, the leaves, bark, and fruit of acerola were reported to have antifungal properties. New findings show that acerola may potentiate the benefits and actions of other supplements (the cholesterol-lowering actions of soy and alfalfa, in one study).
Recent research in cosmetology indicates that vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant and free radical scavenger for the skin, and acerola extracts are now appearing in skin care products that fight cellular aging. In addition to its vitamin content, acerola contains mineral salts that have shown to aid in the remineralization of tired and stressed skin, and its mucilage and proteins have skin-hydrating properties and promote capillary conditioning.
CURRENT PRACTICAL USES
In North America, acerola is used for its high content of vitamin C. Dried acerola fruit extracts can now be found in tablet form and as an ingredient in many over-the-counter multivitamin products in the United States as a natural form of vitamin C.
Traditional Preparation: In South America, acerola juice is freely consumed like most other fruit juices. Consumers in the United States should take acerola supplements based on the vitamin C content provided in the products available in the marketplace. The adult recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for vitamin C is 60-75 mg daily. Therapeutic dosages of vitamin C for colds and flu, general illnesses, and debility are 1-5 g daily.
Contraindications: A study published in 2002 reported that acerola caused allergic reactivity similar to that of the well-known allergen latex. Those who may be allergic to latex may also be allergic to acerola in supplement form or to its addition in various fruit juices.
Large dosages of vitamin C can cause diarrhea.
