Phenolic content and antioxidant activity of fruit of Brazilian genotypes of feijoa
The objective of this work was to quantify the total phenolic content (TPC) and total antioxidant activity (TAA) of fruit from Brazilian genotypes of feijoa (Acca sellowiana). Skin and flesh tissues of the fruit were evaluated for the Alcântara, Helena, Mattos, and Nonante cultivars, and for the 231...

Zusammenfassung: | The objective of this work was to quantify the total phenolic content (TPC) and total antioxidant activity (TAA) of fruit from Brazilian genotypes of feijoa (Acca sellowiana). Skin and flesh tissues of the fruit were evaluated for the Alcântara, Helena, Mattos, and Nonante cultivars, and for the 2316 accession. TPC and TAA were both assessed in aqueous and hydroalcoholic extracts, and TAA was assayed by the DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) and ABTS [2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid)] methods. The TPC values, for aqueous extracts of the skin and flesh tissues, were 114.9 and 88.3 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE) per 100 g fresh weight (FW), respectively. The corresponding values for TAA determined by the DPPH method, the skin and flesh tissues, given as EC50 (substrate concentration which leads to 50% reduction of the DPPH), were 10.7 and 39.7 mg FW per g DPPH, respectively; and, by the ABTS method, the TAA values were 12.01 and 8.33 μmol L-1 Trolox per g FW, respectively. The greatest values for TPC and TAA were obtained for 'Mattos' and 'Nonante', in the skin, and for 'Nonante' and accession 2316, in the flesh. Feijoa fruit has important functional value, particularly in the skin, characterized by high TPC and TAA.
Resumo: O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar compostos fenólicos totais (CFT) e atividade antioxidante total (AAT) em frutos de genótipos brasileiros de goiabeira-serrana (Acca sellowiana). As avaliações foram realizadas na casca e na polpa dos frutos, nas cultivares Alcântara, Helena, Mattos e Nonante, e no acesso 2316. CFT e AAT foram determinados em soluções extratoras aquosa e hidroalcoólica, e, para AAT, foram utilizados os métodos DPPH (2,2-difenil-1-picrilhidrazilo) e ABTS [2,2’-azino-bis (3-etilbenzotiazolin) 6-ácido sulfônico]. Os valores de CFT em extrato aquoso na casca e na polpa foram de 114,9 e de 88,3 mg em equivalente de ácido gálico (EAG) por 100 g de matéria fresca (MF), respectivamente. Para AAT, em extrato aquoso, na casca e na polpa, no método DPPH, os valores de EC50 (concentração de substrato para reduzir em 50% a concentração inicial de DPPH) foram de 10,7 e 39,7 mg MF por g de DPPH, respectivamente; e, no método ABTS, foram de 12.01 e 8.33 μmol L-1 de Trolox por g de MF, respectivamente. Os maiores valores de CFT e AAT foram observados em 'Mattos' e 'Nonante', na casca, e em 'Nonante' e no acesso 2316 na polpa. Os frutos de goiabeira-serrana apresentam importante valor funcional, especialmente |
