“…These proceedings are consistent with Yilmaz et al's paper, in which they showed how the polyphenol concentration was genetically related [3]. Polyphenol content can be linked to the amount of juice and peel color [30,36,37]. Cultivar Szafer possessed the most intense purple color of all cultivars, and it was also the richest in TPC among the cultivars tested by Kucharska et al In the study by Adamenko et al [38], an analogous relationship could be noticed in meads prepared with different Cornus mas juices with different colors ranging from amber yellow to red.…”

Cornus mas, also known as the Cornelian cherry, is a plant that grows in Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Its green leaves and reddish oval fruits are associated with many beneficial properties such as antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. These features are driven by the rich polyphenolic composition, with anthocyanins and iridoids in Cornelian cherry fruits as well as flavonoids and phenolic acids in leaves. The antioxidant behavior as well as the composition significantly depends on the cultivar of the plant and its genotype. The functional properties of Cornelian cherry have been recognized in many in vitro and toxicological studies. Cornus mas fruits and their extracts have been found to have significant antiatherogenic, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective effects. The beneficial effect of C. mas fruits as a food component has been determined in numerous papers focused on functional food. However, there is no information in existing literature about C. mas leaves in functional food applications. This paper presents the results of current studies including their synthesis to answer the question whether the Cornelian cherry exhibits positive properties due to its bioactive compound content.

“…Total Phenolic Content Cosmulescu et al (2019) reported TPC values between 163.69 and 359.28 mg GAE/100 g, FW for wild Cornelian cherry genotypes. In another study, TPC of polar fraction and methanolic extract for fresh Cornelian cherry was determined as 439.9 ± 34.6 mg GAE/100 g and 2,110 ± 84.0 mg GAE/100 g respectively (Karaaslan et al, 2018).…”

“…Gallic acid and ellagic acid contents in our sample were found to be higher compared with these results. Cosmulescu et al (2019) also examined the phenolic compounds of wild Cornelian cherry fruit genotypes. Among the individual phenolic compounds, gallic acid was determined in higher amount (14.49 mg/100 g), followed by coumaric acid (13.79 mg/100 g), ellagic acid (5.71 mg/100 g), salicylic acid (1.43 mg/100 g), ferulic acid (1.25 mg/100 g) and synaptic acid (0.19 mg/100 g).…”

The traditional Cornelian cherry marmalade, named as 'Garagurt' , is usually consumed for nutritional purposes and health benefits. The objective of this study was to determine the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of Cornelian cherry marmalade. Antioxidant activities of the sample as determined by ABTS, cupric ion-reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) assays were 8,428 ± 1,206 mg TE/100 g, 1,599 ± 41.4 mg TE/100 g and 773 ± 206 mg TE/100 g respectively. The antimicrobial activity of the sample was determined by the disc diffusion method in minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) against Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella typhimurium, Pseudomonas fluorescens and Yersinia enterocolitica. The MIC value of garagurt (0.66 mg phenol compound/g) was ≥256 mg/mL for L. monocytogenes, S. aureus, Y. enterocolitica, E. coli and P. fluorescens when gentamicin (10 µg) was used as positive control. Total phenolic content (TPC), which provides antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, was determined as 195 ± 6.35 mg GAE/100 g in aqueous methanolic extract of garagurt. This product in different forms could be used for its antimicrobial effect to increase the shelf life of different foods.

“…Cornelian cherry fruits contain significant amounts of phenolic bioactive substances, which contribute to their antioxidant value. In our study, the lowest total polyphenols were found in the fruits of the Chisinau yellow variety 183.91 mg/100 g, and the highest in the fruits of the selection Krupnoplodni NS 307.9 mg/100 g. The content of total polyphenols in Cornelian cherry fruits from Bosnia and Herzegovina studied by Drkenda et al [46] ranged from 119.1 to 230.6 mg GAE/100 g FW, and in fruits from Romania shown by Cosmulenca et al [59] from 163.7 to 359.28 mg GAE/100 g FW, which is close to results presented in this paper. Much wider variation in the content of total polyphenols in Cornelian cherry fruits was presented by Stanković et al [60] from 12.8 to 341.1 mg GAE/100 g FW.…”

Cornelian cherries has been grown Balkan peninsula no apparent disease and pest problems for centuries. The most important pomological and technological properties of cornelian cherry genetic resources (eleven local and introduced varieties and selections) in Gornje Polimlje, Montenegro were studied in four–year periods. Fruit weight, stone weight, and mesocarp/stone ratio shows great variation and varied between 1.89 to 6.16 g, 0.32 to 0.64 g and between 76.66 and 90.59%, respectively. Genotypes significantly differed each other in terms of yield determined as per trunk cross section area (TCSA). For better visualization of the agronomical traits important to the yield, i.e., yield per TCSA and fruit weight data is presented in combination as measured in the years of study. The best promising genotypes are Vladimirskiy, Chisinau yellow, and Krupnoplodni NS, which had consistently higher yield and large fruits for sustainable fruit production. Dry matter, total sugars, reducing sugars, sucrose, total acidity, Ca–pectate, vitamin C, total anthocyanins, total polyphenols, and ash content of cornelian cherry cultivars and selections were found between 19.81–24.46%, 10.94–14.47%, 10.44–13.09%, 0.24–1.23%, 1.92–2.51%, 2.76–4.43%, 41.09–101.27 mg/100 g, 0–157.06 mg/100 g, 183.91–307.9 mg/100 g, and 0.89–1.16%, respectively. The amount of potassium, which predominates in percentage of minerals in the ash, ranged from 2888 to 3574 mg/kg. The extensiveness of the study leads, therefore, to several clear conclusions and recommendations. Consistently, the best balance of biochemical elements in combination with good yield and fruit size measurements is found in selection Krupnoplodi NS. If consider fruit size and yield efficiency are priority, Vladimirskiy, Chisinau yellow, Kosten 3, and Krupnoplodni NS have clear advantage over the other genotypes. The study highlights the importance of local cornelian cherry selections for sustainable cornelian cherry production in Montenegro.
