“…The content of phenolic compounds was well correlated with the antioxidant capacity (R 2 = 0.720), as previously observed by Chaovanalikit and Wrolstad [23] and Damar and Eksi [24]. Khoo et al [25] also indicated that selection of cultivars is important to obtain cherries with better potential health promoting effects because in addition, they have shown differences in bioactivity experiments (Caco-2 cancer cell proliferation inhibitory activity and effect on prostaglandin E2 production).…”

“…The percentage of variation was similar for ascorbic acid and phenolic compounds but there were no correlation between them (R 2 = 0.035 and 0.114 between antioxidant capacity and phenolic compounds or ascorbic acid respectively). Significant differences in ascorbic acid content and antioxidant capacity (ORAC) between blackcurrant cultivars were already reported by Khoo et al [25]. The antioxidant capacity of redcurrants was lower and close of that of gooseberries.…”

Abstract. BACKGROUND:Small dark fruits represent one of the most important sources of bioactive compounds with antioxidant capacity in the human diet. The content of health-promoting antioxidants in these fruits may be important information to take into account when a fruit producer has to choose which cultivar to grow. OBJECTIVE: It is important to know how antioxidant capacity and antioxidant compounds as total phenolics and ascorbic acid vary between 9 small dark fruit species and for each species among cultivars (2 to 10 per species). METHODS:The antioxidant capacity (ORAC assay), total phenolic (Folin-Ciocalteu) and ascorbic acid content were measured in 9 fruits (plums, blackcurrants, blackberries, blueberries, cherries, redcurrants, raspberries, white currants and gooseberries) / 42 cultivars harvested at maturity during their high production period. RESULTS:The comparison of the average of the various cultivars of each small fruits showed that blackcurrants had the best antioxidant capacity (with plums), the highest ascorbic acid content and the highest total phenolic content (with blackberries). The present study shows that total phenolic compounds, ascorbic acid and antioxidant capacity strongly differed between genotypes of each small dark fruits. Other parameters as harvest time, culture conditions and maturity degree at the harvest may also influence the antioxidant capacity of small fruits. CONCLUSIONS: Among small dark fruits, blackcurrants have high qualities. Choices of variety, harvest time and maturity degree are important for all fruits.

“…It is known that blackcurrants have very high value of total antioxidative capacity, which amounts to 200.3 μmol TE/g dried fruit mass. This results from high polyphenol, anthocyanin and vitamin C contents [15,16]. The total anthocyanin (cyanidin-3-rutinoside + cyanidin-3-glucoside + delphinidin-3-rutinoside + delphinidin-3-glucoside) content is very high in fresh fruits and amounts to 897.2 given as mg/100 g of fresh weight.…”

“…The total anthocyanin (cyanidin-3-rutinoside + cyanidin-3-glucoside + delphinidin-3-rutinoside + delphinidin-3-glucoside) content is very high in fresh fruits and amounts to 897.2 given as mg/100 g of fresh weight. The four main pigments: delphinidin 3-O-glucoside, delphinidin 3-O-rutinoside, cyanidin-3-O-glucoside and cyanidin-3-Orutinoside contribute up to 97% of the total anthocyanin in blackcurrants [15,17]. However, it was shown that the retention of anthocyanins in the blackcurrant beverages appears to be rather poor [18].…”

“…Nes et al [2012] in Norway and Zurawicz et al [2000] in Poland reported higher levels of vitamin C in 'Tisel' and 'Tiben', whereas Siksnianas et al [2006] in Lithuanian obtained low levels of vitamin C in 'Titania'. Khoo et al [2012] stressed significant cultivar-dependent variations in vitamin C content. In addition to high levels of vitamin C, Nikolić and Milivojević [2010] reported significant amounts of vitamin B 1 .…”

Black currant contain significant amounts of minerals and vitamins that are associated with an improved health status. The effect of three soil management system (bare fallow, sawdust mulch and black foil mulch) on the content of vitamins and minerals in the fruits of seven black currant cultivars ('Ben Lomond', 'Ben Sarek', 'Titania', 'Čačanska Crna', 'Tisel', 'Tiben' and 'Tsema') was analyzed. HPLC-DAD (high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector) technique was used to define the vitamins A, B 1 , B 2 and B 3 . Vitamin C were evaluated using a spectrometer, whereas the mineral content of the fruit was determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. Significant differences in the minerals and vitamins content were detected among the cultivars. The berries of black currants are rich in mineral composition, especially potassium, phosphours, sodium, calcium and magnesium as well as iron. Also, black currant is an important source of vitamin C and, to a lesser amount vitamins A and B 3 . Soil management systems showed highly significant differences in some the tested parameters. Black currants grown on black foil mulch gave the highest levels of K, P and Na, and those on sawdust mulch had a high content of vitamins C, A and B 3 . On the other hand, soil management system had no pronounced effect on the other vitamins and minerals analyzed. This study demonstrates degree of differences in the amount vitamins and mineral elements depending on the different soil management systems and climatic factors.
