Descripción:	Flamboyant-mirim seed flour (FSF) emerges as a promising natural ingredient obtained from grains rich in proteins, carbohydrates, minerals, and bioactive compounds. This study aimed to characterize FSF and evaluate the effect of particle size on its chemical, physicochemical, technological, mineral, and functional properties. The seeds were milled using a knife grinder, and the flour fractions were separated through sieves of 0.710, 0.500, 0.355, and 0.250 mm. Analyses included proximate composition, technological, and functional parameters, and 1H NMR spectroscopy was performed only for the selected 0.250 mm fraction (chosen due to its superior proximate composition) to assess solvent-dependent compositional variability.
