“…In contrast, the case of α-tocopherol may be associated with an increase in the expression of the VTE1 gene, responsible for the synthesis of the enzyme tocopherol cyclase, which produces γtocopherol, a precursor of α-tocopherol [19]. Moreover, the soils used for cultivation have different chemical composition that has been shown a significant effect on the production of polyphenols and capsaicinoides [22,36], however, this factor did not show a significant effect on the concentration of the metabolites studied in the present work. This might be because the predominant effect of the ripening stage could mask some possible effect of the soil.…”

The purpose of this work was to investigate the effect of the ripening stage and type of soil on the concentration of carotenoids and vitamins in Habanero pepper (Capsicum chinense Jacq.). Pepper plants were grown in two soils named according to the Mayan classification as: K’ankab lu’um (red soil) and Box lu’um (black soil). The results of two harvests at 320 and 334 PTD (post-transplant day) showed that the ripening stage exhibited a significant effect (p < 0.05) on the concentration of carotenoids and vitamins, while the effect of the soil type was negligible. The concentration of carotenoids decreases as the ripening process of the fruit takes place, with the highest concentration of lutein (49.47 ± 0.34 mg/100 g of dry mass), β-carotene (99.92 ± 0.69 mg/100 g of dry mass) and β-cryptoxanthin (20.93 ± 0.04 mg/100 g of dry mass) in the unripe peppers. The concentration of vitamins increases as the ripening process develops, with the highest concentration of Vitamin E (9.69 ± 0.02 mg/100 g of dry mass) and Vitamin C (119.44 ± 4.72 mg/100 g of dry mass) in the ripe peppers. This knowledge could be used to select the best ripening stage to harvest Habanero peppers according to the use of the pepper and to the needs of producers/company.

“…There are several examples of combination of flow injection systems with coulometric detection [111][112][113]. Flow injection with a coulometric array detector is based on the 16 porous graphite-working electrodes poised at potentials from +100 to + 850 mV with increments of 50 mV (vs. Pt reference electrode) and response to the total capsaicinoids contents in chili habanero [111].…”

“…Flow injection with a coulometric array detector is based on the 16 porous graphite-working electrodes poised at potentials from +100 to + 850 mV with increments of 50 mV (vs. Pt reference electrode) and response to the total capsaicinoids contents in chili habanero [111]. The method shows better analytical characteristics than ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detector as well as a significantly decreased time of analysis from 15 min to 30 s. Further development of this approach has been performed through a coulometric electronic tongue-a device based on one or more low-selective coulometric sensors showing cross-sensitivity towards various compounds in the solution, each contributing to a specific sensory stimulus [112]. The coulometric electronic tongue consisted of 16 porous carbon electrodes positioned in series, each poised at increasing potentials (from + 50 to + 850 mV vs. Pt reference electrode) [112].…”

“…Another electronic tongue based on flow injection coulometry has been developed for the estimation of the antioxidant capacity of fresh lettuce [113]. Similarly to the previous one [112], an electronic tongue was used, consisting of a series of 16 porous carbon electrodes, each poised at a fixed potential from +100 to +850 mV at a step of 50 mV [113]. The system is capable of analyzing up to 60 samples per hour confirming its high throughput.…”

The definition of antioxidants (AOs), their classification and properties as well as electrochemical sensor systems for AOs analysis are briefly discussed. The analytical capabilities of coulometric titration with electrogenerated titrants as sensor systems for AOs determination have been considered in detail. The attention focused on the individual AO quantification that was mainly used in the pharmaceutical analysis and estimation of total antioxidant parameters (total antioxidant capacity (TAC), ferric reducing power (FRP) and ceric reducing/antioxidant capacity (CRAC)) allowing the fast screening of the target samples including their quality control. The main advantages of coulometric sensor systems are pointed out. The selective quantification of individual AO in a complex matrix using a combination of chromatography with coulometric or coulometric array detection under potentiostatic mode is discussed. The future development of coulometric sensor systems for AOs analysis is focused on the application of novel coulometric titrants and the application of coulometric detection in flow injection analysis.

This systematic review addresses the difficulties of cultivating under variable environmental conditions and explores the growing importance of chili peppers (Capsicum annum L.) in worldwide agriculture. It emphasizes the use of enclosed growing systems as a workable way to increase crop yields of chilies. The needs of various chilies in these systems highlighting the significance of sustainability and resource efficiency for the best possible yield, quality, and financial sustainability. Shading is a crucial tactic to mitigate the adverse effects of sunlight and high temperatures, supporting healthier plants and regular fruit development. The study also looks into greenhouse cultivation to shelter plants from the weather and achieve higher yields, better development rates, and better‐quality fruit. This thorough analysis fills a research gap, offers helpful recommendations for maximizing production, and is an invaluable tool for practitioners and scholars studying enclosed chili agriculture.
