Relations between nutrients and bioactive compounds of commercial tomato varieties by the Principal Component Analysis

Abstract: This study evaluated relations among nutrients, bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity of commercial tomato varieties grown in field conditions in order to identify their biological potential by the Principal Component Analysis (PCA). Four commercial tomato varieties (Long Life, Italian, Khaki and Cherry), homogenized by their maturation stage (color, sugar/acidity ratio and pH) were evaluated regarding macro components (sugars, pectin and minerals) and functional ones (carotenoids, phenolic compounds an… Show more

“…Elemental analysis of vegetables is an important research that assesses the nutritional value and mineral content of food and evaluates the toxic micro-elements. Moreover, food quality is related to the content and type of minerals that contribute to taste, appearance, texture and stability (Rodrigues et al, 2022). Major elements including phosphorus (P), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), potassium (K) and sodium (Na) etc.…”
