Abstract:This study aimed to evaluate the concentrations of the heavy metals, macro and micro-elements as well as the distribution of phenolic constituents in different parts of half-ripe and full-ripe kei apple fruits. For mineral analysis, fruit samples were digested and analyzed using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICPOES). The colorimetric determination of total polyphenolic contents (TPs) and the antioxidant capacity using DPPH and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) assays were done using … Show more
