Ripening-Dependent Changes in Antioxidants, Color Attributes, and Antioxidant Activity of Seven Tomato (Solanum lycopersicumL.) Cultivars

Abstract: To evaluate the ripening-dependent changes in phytonutrients, seven commercial cultivars (two general and five cherry) of tomatoes were cultivated under greenhouse conditions. Fruits were harvested at breaker, turning, pink, light red, and red stages of each cultivar, and antioxidant contents, color attributes, and antioxidant activities were measured. During ripening process, lycopene content increased from the breaker to red stage, while lutein displayed the reverse accumulation pattern, with higher values d… Show more

“…Reyes and Cisneros-Zevallos (2003) also reported corresponding characteristics between total phenolics and total antioxidant activity. Similar result was reported by Bhandari and Lee (2016) where antioxidant capacity increase to a certain ripening stage in some cultivars of tomato and later decreased.…”

“…This carotenoid first increased up to the pink stage (stage 4) and then decreased to the red stage. This may be due to the difference in cultivars, as, during tomato fruit ripening, the cultivarspecific pattern of accumulation of b-carotene is reported (Bhandari and Lee 2016). Authors recorded the higher bcarotene content in pink and light red stages of cherry tomatoes.…”

“…Flavonoid analyses were performed according to Bhandari and Lee (2016) with some modifications. Briefly, lyophilized broccoli samples (1.0 g) were hydrolyzed and extracted in 10 mL 50% MeOH containing 1.2 M HCl and 0.4 g L -1 tertbutylhydroquinone (TBHQ) for 2 h at 80 ºC.…”

“…Ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay was performed according to Bhandari and Lee (2016). First, the following stock solutions were prepared: 300 mM acetate buffer (3.1 g C2H3NaO2•3H2O, 16 mL C2H4O2), pH 3.6; 10 mM 2,4,6-tripyridyl-s-triazine (TPTZ) solution in 40 mM HCl, and 20 mM FeCl3•6H2O solution, and a fresh working solution was prepared by mixing acetate buffer, TPTZ solution, and FeCl3•6H2O solution in 10:1:1 ratio (v/v/v).…”
