Effect of physiological harvest stages on the composition of bioactive compounds in Cavendish bananas

Abstract: The combined influence of maturation, ripening, and climate on the profile of bioactive compounds was studied in banana (Musa acuminata, AAA, Cavendish, cv. Grande Naine). Their bioactive compounds were determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu assay and high-performance thin layer chromatographic (HPTLC) method. The polyphenol content of bananas harvested after 400 degree days remained unchanged during ripening, while bananas harvested after 600 and 900 degree days exhibited a significant polyphenol increase.

“…Starch amounts in the pulp showed a relative increase still ongoing in mature green banana fruits between 60 and 90 DAF, and they progressively and significantly decreased after acetylene treatment, with a reduction of around 26% 4 days after treatment ( P < 0.05, Figure 8 ). This confirmed starch accumulation during banana development and starch breakdown during ripening as previously described for banana (e.g., Bruno Bonnet et al, 2013). …”

“…Pulp total phenolic compounds increased up to the ripening stage 5 and then decreased, whereas peel total phenolic compounds increased throughout the ripening process. This suggests a tissue specific regulation of the ripening process as mentioned by Bruno Bonnet et al and Inaba et al for Musa species. A different result was found by Ngoh Newilah et al, who obtained an increase in pulp total phenolic compounds of plantains from stage 1 to stage 7.…”

“…Firmness of a whole banana sample without peel was determined by a texture analyzer (TA.HD plus, Stable Micro System, UK) using a needle probe number P/2N. The result was reported as peak force in Newtons (N) [ 59 , 60 ]. Total sugars as fructose, glucose and sucrose were determined by HPLC following the methods of Xu, Niimi and Han [ 61 ].…”
