Research Abstract |
Oxalic acid and total polyphenol contents, and free radical scavenging activity were determined in the fruits of various Actinidia genotypes. It revealed that there was considerable varietal differences in the contents of these functional components in the fruits. Simple and rapid methods for determination of Vitamin C, chlorophyll, and carotenoids in Actinidia fruits were developed to enable effective screening for development of new Actinidia cultivars of commercial potential.
