“…Altogether, these molecules confer great nutritional and functional value to coconut water [5,12], which generates significant income for the economies of several countries, mainly in Southeast Asia [13]. Among the other uses of liquid coconut endosperm, it is can be used as a component in plant tissue culture media [14][15][16]; as an alternative to intravenous rehydration in critical situations [17]; as a dietary supplement [18]; and has recently been promoted as an important source of molecules with nutraceutical potential [19,20]. However, despite the nutraceutical and economic importance of coconut fruit, very few studies have been conducted to understand the biochemical and molecular basis of the ripening process.…”

Cocos nucifera L. is one of the most cultivated palm trees in the world since it is used to obtain both raw materials and food. From a human point of view, the coconut fruit is a very valuable product, producing an aromatic and tasty liquid endosperm (coconut water) containing high levels of sugars, amino acids and other molecules of nutritional and nutraceutical value. Most of the chemical composition studies conducted on coconut to date have focused on the determination of fatty acid content in coconut oil and the extension of the shelf life of coconut water. Despite the economic importance of this species, the maturation of the coconut fruit is a complex biological process scarcely studied from the metabolic approach and biochemical changes occurring during fruit maturation are not well-known. The objective of this study is to investigate and elucidate the metabolic changes that occur during the maturation process of coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) fruits, specifically focusing on the liquid endosperm of the Yucatan green dwarf variety. In this study, the liquid endosperm of coconut fruits at the immature, intermediate and mature stages have been analyzed through an untargeted metabolomics approach by ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-HRMS). A total of 591 spectrometric features were detected and the corresponding identified compounds were classified into 24 chemical classes. The principal component analysis (PCA) showed segregation among the samples, according to their stage of maturation. Most of the metabolites detected were related to the metabolism of flavonoids, carbohydrates and organooxygen compounds. Pathway analysis showed that sphingolipid, starch and sucrose metabolisms were among the most over-accumulated during ripening, followed by the metabolism of glyoxylates and dicarboxylates and the metabolism of amino acids such as alanine, aspartate and glutamate, and others. This is the first study that focuses on elucidating the metabolic profiles of the liquid endosperm of coconut Yucatan green dwarf variety during three stages of maturation with an untargeted metabolomics approach through UPLC-MS.

“…Coconut water is a liquid extracted from tender coconut fruits (maturity age of 6–9 months after pollination) and is in demand globally due to several known health benefits (Reddy et al ., 2018). Coconut water products that are available worldwide are commonly found in aseptic packages (Rolle, 2007).…”

This study investigated the carbon isotope ratio (¹³C/¹²C, δ 13 C in unit of parts per thousand or per mill, ‰) of different coconut water samples using elemental analysis isotope ratio mass spectrometry (EA-IRMS) and combustion module cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CM-CRDS). Natural coconut water from young coconuts from 12 provinces in Thailand (n = 94), adulterated coconut water containing three sweeteners (sucrose, glucose and fructose) at different concentrations and eight brands of commercial coconut water were analysed. The δ 13 C of all samples were not significantly different (P > 0.05) between the EA-IRMS and CM-CRDS analyses. The natural coconut water (C3 plant) had δ 13 C ranging from −21.58‰ to −27.79‰ (mean −24.64 AE 0.91‰). Three sweeteners (C4 plant) contained δ 13 C between −11.46‰ to −13.16‰. The use of δ 13 C determination can detect adulteration of a singular extraneous sweetener (either glucose or sucrose) down to a level of 2% of adulteration. For the detected δ 13 C values of commercial products labelled as 'no added sugar', about 50% of products were adulterated. This study demonstrates that CM-CRDS can be used as an alternative analytical platform to EA-IRMS for detecting adulterated products, especially coconut water.
