| The bioactive compounds content in pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) juice is variable and depends on agronomic factors, genetic and fruit maturity. In Chile, the areas with this crop have increased more than 65% in the last 5 years. This paper aims to determine the phenolic composition, antioxidant capacity and chromatic parameters of juices from eight Chilean pomegranate genotypes (PG2 to PG9), containing red (PG2 to PG6) or pink arils (PG7 to PG9). Color, total polyphenol content (using Folin-Ciocalteu reagent), total anthocyanins (by differences in absorbance at different pHs of the juice) and antioxidant capacity (oxygen-radical absorbance capacity, ORAC) were determined. Anthocyanins were identified and quantify using HPLC-DAD and HPLC/ESI-MS, the... |
