Mango peel shrinks as wrinkles after overripening, which physical appearance looks very similar to wrinkled skin of older people. The study includes comparison between UMP (unwrinkled mango peel) and WMP (wrinkled mango peel). FTIR analysis showed higher absorption peak bands for WMP compared to UMP. In DSC experimentation, WMP showed more endothermic nature than UMP. In CHNS elemental analysis, Sulphur was found to be significantly higher in WMP, approximately thrice of UMP. These might also be the possible reasons for the cause of the wrinkled human skin, as the basic compositional elements remain same for mango as well as human.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
