“…Their benefits are primarily associated with their rich composition in bioactive compounds such as lycopene, ascorbic acid, tocopherols, and polyphenols (Charanjeet, Binoy, Deepa, Balraj, & Kapoor, 2005;Klein & Kurilich, 2000;Peng, Zhang, & Ye, 2008;Prior & Cao, 2000;Wargovich, 2000). Several studies have shown that the concentration of these bioactive compounds in fresh tomatoes depends on factors such as cultivars (Valverde, González, Alonso, & Periago, 2013), soil and climate conditions (Garcia & Barrett, 2006;Kapoulas, Ilic, Durovka, Trajjkovic, & Milenkovic, 2011;Vinha, Soares, Herdeiro, & Machado, 2012), degree of ripening, and postharvest storage conditions (Dumas, Dadomo, Lucca, & Grolier, and antioxidant potential, namely the discard of the peel and seeds are, however, sparse and needed.…”
