Influence of ripening stage and cultivar on physicochemical properties, sugar and organic acid profiles, and antioxidant compositions of strawberries.

ABSTRACT: The current study compared the physicochemical properties, antioxidant compounds and activities, of unripe and ripe fruits of three cultivars (Seolhyang, Janghee, and Maehyang) of strawberries grown in Korea. As fruits matured, their soluble solids content increased and their organic acid content decreased. Total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) did not differ between Seolhyang and Maehyang fruits, regardless of maturity, whereas unripe Janghee fruits showed higher TPC and TFC than ripe fruits. Total anthocyanin content was higher in ripe fruits than in unripe fruits. For total antioxidant activity, ripe and unripe Seolhyang fruits showed no differences, whereas unripe Janghee fruits showed significantly higher activity than ripe fruits. TPC and TFC were highly correlated, as were DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities. Thus, antioxidant contents and total antioxidant activities differed with variety and fruit ripeness at harvest. Unripe fruits show strong potential for use in functional food manufacturing.

Project description:The phenolic composition and content of olive fruit are some of the attributes that determine oil quality. This composition depends on the olive variety, the cultivation system, and the fruit's ripeness. This study considered two olive varieties (Manzanilla and Morisca), under two water regimes (irrigated and rainfed), harvested at three stages of maturation (S1, S2, and S3), over three consecutive campaigns (2011, 2012, and 2013). The accumulation of phenols in the fruit was found to depend only on the stage of ripeness, while the flavonoid and phenylpropanoid contents depended also on the variety and the water regime. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was linked to O2- production, which in turn depended on water regime, variety, and stage of maturation (this last being a process involving ROS). The peroxidase (POX) activity seemed only to depend on ripeness, while polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity varied from year to year as well as presenting a strong ripeness dependence that was in clear coherence with the levels of phenolic compounds that the olives accumulate. All these relationships between the variables and the factors conform a dataset with the structure of a multidimensional array that is difficult to interpret using conventional techniques of statistical analysis. This work takes a novel approach (MultiDimensional Scaling associated with a Partial Triadic Analysis, MDS-PTA) to the analysis of this type of data structure which allows its correct interpretation. The analysis showed that the state of maturation of the olives is the most clearly discriminating factor, far more so than the cultivar, water regime, or year. Thus, the phenols and the total antioxidant activity (FRAP) showed strong clustering, being closely related in all three years studied. The oxidant and antioxidant activities showed a certain tendency to cluster, although in these cases the year also had an influence as a factor, indicating that these parameters depend more on external factors and less on ripeness.
