“…For Bacon exocarp, chlorogenic and quinic acids were found in concentrations within the range 3.32–4.21 and 13–19 mg/g, respectively. The values obtained for chlorogenic acid in exocarp tissues are on the order of those obtained for the Hass variety and substantially higher than those of Creole avocados . The values for C6 sugars in the exocarp of the Bacon variety ranged from 1.0 to 2.6 mg/g for glucose, from 0.84 to 3.3 mg/g for fructose, and from 0.10 to 1.9 mg/g for sucrose.…”

As far as C7 carbohydrates are concerned, Dmannoheptulose was always found at concentration levels notably higher than those of perseitol (6−32 mg/g for Dmannoheptulose and 0.120−4.2 mg/g for perseitol).…”

“…Ramos-Aguilar and co-workers also found no detectable levels of this compound in mesocarp for samples of ripe fruits from Mexican Creole. 41 The involvement of C6 and C7 sugars in avocado ripening is irrefutable, so they fluctuate as this process takes place (in some tissues, it will be more noticeable than in others). The data presented indicate that these fluctuations will depend on the variety studied, and what is established for Bacon, for example, does not necessarily resemble in its entirety what is established for Fuerte (neither for Hass, if we compare it with what is established in the published literature).…”

Avocado fruit growth and development, unlike that of other fruits, is characterized by the accumulation of oil and C7 sugars (in most fruits, the carbohydrates that prevail are C6). There are five essential carbohydrates which constitute 98% of the total content of soluble sugars in this fruit; these are fructose, glucose, sucrose, d-mannoheptulose, and perseitol, which together with quinic acid and chlorogenic acid have been the analytes under study in this work. After applying an efficient extraction procedure, a novel methodology based on hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry was applied to determine the levels of these seven substances in tissuesexocarp, seed, and mesocarpfrom avocado fruits of two different varieties scarcely studied, Bacon and Fuerte, at three different ripening stages. Quantitative characterization of the selected tissues was performed, and the inter-tissue distribution of metabolites was described. For both varieties, d-mannoheptulose was the major component in the mesocarp and exocarp, whereas perseitol was predominant in the seed, followed by sucrose and d-mannoheptulose. Sucrose was found to be more abundant in seed tissues, with much lower concentrations in avocado mesocarp and exocarp. Quinic acid showed a predominance in the exocarp, and chlorogenic acid was exclusively determined in exocarp samples.

“…However, mannoheptulose decreased in the short distance supply chain (from 84.7 to 50.5 g kg −1 DW) indicating that there is a significant on-going metabolic activity in regular air conditions compared to the long-distance supply chain (lower temperature and controlled atmosphere). Significant on-going metabolic activity in cold regular air conditions compared to controlled atmosphere conditions is well noted since under regular air conditions the fruit not only experiences higher respiration rate but also higher ethylene production as compared to lower oxygen and higher dioxide conditions [ 45 , 46 ].…”

Avocado consumption and trade are increasing worldwide, with North America and Europe being the main importing regions. Spain is the major European avocado producer (90% of the production), yet it only supplies 10% of the market. Consequently, more than 90% of the avocados consumed in Europe are imported from overseas, mainly from Chile and Peru. In this work, the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) impact associated with the transport of two avocado supply chains (short (Spanish) and long (Chilean)) and the effect of the fruit origin and distance of both chains on primary and secondary metabolites from harvest to edible ripeness were evaluated using a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and liquid chromatography coupled to diode array detection (LC-DAD) based metabolite analysis. The LCA transport impact of the fresh supply chain from production centers in Chile (Quillota) and Spain (Malaga), and then the distribution to several cities in Europe, suggested road export from Spain to European capitals to have the lowest impact (0.14 to 0.22 kg CO2 eq/kg of avocado). When export from Chile was considered, the option of oceanic freight to European ports closer to final destinations was clearly a better option (0.21 to 0.26 kg CO2 eq/kg) than via the Algeciras port in Spain followed by road transport to final destinations in European capitals (0.34 to 0.43 kg CO2 eq/kg), although the situation could be somewhat different if the avocados are transported from the destination ports in northern Europe to long-distance capitals in other European countries. Fruit origin had a significant impact on avocado primary and secondary metabolites. The conditions of the supply chain itself (10 d in cold storage in regular conditions vs. 30 d cold storage + controlled atmosphere conditions) largely influence the fate of some metabolites that certainly affect the pool of metabolites at edible ripeness. The long-assumed hypothesis that the longer the supply chain the more negative impact on nutritional and functional compounds might not hold in this case, as long as transport conditions are adequate in terms of temperature, atmosphere conditions, and time considering distance from origin to destination.
