Bredemeyera floribunda Willd (B. floribunda) is a medicinal plant used by the Brazilian rural population to treat snakebites, but there are no data on the elemental composition and stability of the emulsion of extract of this plant. In this article, we present for the first time data on contents obtained the roots of the medicinal plant B. floribunda by using inductively coupled plasma optical spectrometry (ICP OES), as well as the data on preliminary stability tests of emulsions formulated with aqueous extract of this plant. The first set of data shows a total of 13 elements (Al, Ca, Cr, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, P, Cu, Se and Zn) detected in the roots of the plant. The second set of data shows that the extract data of the B. floribunda roots presented an emulsifying potential. In addition, the article provides information on the heating program for microwave oven digestion and ICP OES operating conditions. The data presented make way for nutritional and toxicological studies involving the roots of B. floribunda. The data on the cataloging of the plant can be found in the deposit nº 54366 of the Herbarium of the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul, available in www.splink.org.br/form?lang=pt&collectioncode=CGMS.
