“…Apples contain a great deal of elements such as magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), iron (Fe) and others that are beneficial to human body (Liu et al, 2021). It is scientifically recognized that mineral elements are essential components indispensable for keeping human body healthy (Medveckienė et al, 2022). It is well known that phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca) and trace element iron (Fe) are essential for fruit quality.…”

The ‘Opal’ apple, a crossbreed between the ‘Topaz’ and ‘Golden Delicious’ varieties, has a unique crunchy, a tangy flavor, slow browning rate that can keep long-lasting freshness after being sliced up. With ‘Fuji’ apples as reference controls, the content of mineral elements, and their key metabolites in the pulps of two kinds of apples were analyzed to clarify nutritional properties and slow browning features in ‘Opal’ apples. In this study, the differential metabolites of the two cultivars of apple were statistically analyzed with the differential principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) using UHPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap MS, combined with non-targeted metabolomics technology, to identify the key differential metabolites in the two varieties of apple. The results showed that there was a total of 147 significantly differential metabolites in 10 categories, of which phenylpropanoids and polyketides account for the highest proportion, Through KEGG pathway analysis, the differential compounds in the two apple cultivars were annotated into 52 pathways, and they were significantly enriched in the two pathways ABC transporters and Flavonoid biosynthesis. The results can lay a theoretical basis for researches on apple quality and provide data support for the indepth development of different apple products.

“…These aspects are supported by previous studies, which state that the variations in AA and DHA content in Rosa sp. highlight the importance of considering ripening stages when analyzing vitamin C levels in fruits ( Medveckienė et al, 2022 ; Medveckienė et al, 2023 ).…”

Rosa spp., commonly known as rosehips, are wild plants that have traditionally been employed as herbal remedies for the treatment of a wide range of disorders. Rosehip is a storehouse of vitamins, including A, B complex, C, and E. Among phytonutrients, vitamin C is found in the highest amount. As rosehips contain significant levels of vitamin C, they are perfect candidates for the development of skincare formulations that can be effectively used in the treatment of different skin disorders (i.e., scarring, anti-aging, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, melasma, and atopic dermatitis). This research focuses on the vitamin C content of several Rosa sp. by their botanical and geographic origins, which according to research studies are in the following order: R. rugosa > R. montana > R. canina > R. dumalis, with lower levels in R. villosa and R. arvensis, respectively. Among rosehip species, R. canina is the most extensively studied species which also displays significant amounts of bioactive compounds, but also antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities (e.g., against Propionibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus aureus, S, epidermis, and S. haemolyticus). The investigation also highlights the use of rosehip extracts and oils to minimise the harmful effects of acne, which primarily affects teenagers in terms of their physical appearance (e.g., scarring, hyperpigmentation, imperfections), as well as their moral character (e.g., low self-confidence, bullying). Additionally, for higher vitamin C content from various rosehip species, the traditional (i.e., infusion, maceration, Soxhlet extraction) and contemporary extraction methods (i.e., supercritical fluid extraction, microwave-assisted, ultrasonic-assisted, and enzyme-assisted extractions) are highlighted, finally choosing the best extraction method for increased bioactive compounds, with emphasis on vitamin C content. Consequently, the current research focuses on assessing the potential of rosehip extracts as medicinal agents against various skin conditions, and the use of rosehip concentrations in skincare formulations (such as toner, serum, lotion, and sunscreen). Up-to-date studies have revealed that rosehip extracts are perfect candidates as topical application products in the form of nanoemulsions. Extensive in vivo studies have revealed that rosehip extracts also exhibit specific activities against multiple skin disorders (i.e., wound healing, collagen synthesis, atopic dermatitis, melasma, and anti-aging effects). Overall, with multiple dermatological actions and efficacies, rosehip extracts and oils are promising agents that require a thorough investigation of their functioning processes to enable their safe use in the skincare industry.

“…In a recent study, over 500 s metabolites rosehips from five species were determined, most of which were flavonoids and phenolic acids [ 1 ]. In addition, rosehips are a rich source of mineral nutrients [ 10 ] and vitamins (particularly, vitamin C) and are abundant in carotenoids, tocopherols, tannins, organic acids, amino acids, and pectin [ 11 , 12 ]. In their seeds prevail polyunsaturated fatty acids, followed by monounsaturated and saturated fatty acids [ 13 ].…”

“…Rosa spp. are native to cold and highland areas but demonstrate high environmental adaptability, as they are widespread plants in different climate regions such as Turkey [ 4 , 18 , 19 , 20 ], Slovakia [ 21 ], Serbia [ 14 , 22 , 23 ], Croatia [ 24 , 25 ], Romania [ 26 ], or Lithuania [ 10 , 12 , 13 ].…”

Rosehips of various Rosa spp. are well known for having human health-promoting compounds like mineral nutrients, vitamins, fatty acids, and phenolic compounds. However, little is known about rosehip characteristics which describe the fruit quality and may indicate appropriate harvest times. Our study evaluated the pomological (width, length, and weight of fruits, flesh weight, and seed weight), texture, and CIE colour parameters (L*, a*, and b*), chroma (C), and hue angle (h°) of rosehip fruits of Rosa canina, Rosa rugosa, and genotypes of Rosa rugosa ‘Rubra’ and ‘Alba’, harvested at five ripening stages (I–V). The main results revealed that genotype and ripening stage significantly affected parameters. The significantly longest (R. canina) and widest fruits (R. Rugosa) were measured at ripening stage V. Genotypes of R. rugosa ‘Rubra’ and ‘Alba’ had significantly higher fruit and flesh weights at ripening stage V. Rosehips of all investigated genotypes expressed darkness (lower L*) during ripening, and had the highest hue angle h° values at ripening stage I while the lowest was at stage V. The significantly lowest skin elasticity of rosehips was found at stage V. However, R. canina was distinguished by the highest fruit skin elasticity and strength. As our results show, the desired pomological, colour, and texture features of various species and cultivars rosehips can be optimised according to the harvest time.
