Variability of bioactive properties and antioxidant activity in commercially grown cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum var. cerasiforme) cultivars grown in India

Abstract: In this study, six commercial cherry tomato cultivars were analysed for variations in biochemical and technological parameters. Significant differences were observed among cultivars with respect to their technological and functional quality attributes. About 2.48-fold variation in titratable acidity, 2.47-fold variation in total phenolics, 4.13-fold variation in total carotenoid and 7.68-fold variation in lycopene contents were recorded. The total antioxidant activity and respiration rate were also found to va… Show more

“…Crude protein content of cowpea powder extracts was determined as per micro Kjeldahl method (AACC, 2000) by using fully automatic digester and distillation unit (KEL PLUS Classic DX VATS (E)). Total phenolic content of fresh beans was determined with some modifications as described by Kannaujia et al (2020). The results were expressed in µg of Gallic acid equivalents (GAE)/100g of extract.…”

“…Cherry tomatoes have higher levels of antioxidants, carotenoids, ascorbic acid, phenolic compounds and sugar contents than large-fruited tomatoes. So this type of tomato is preferred among consumers due to generally higher sugar content and concentrations of many health-promoting bioactives (Kannaujia et al, 2020). Selection for sugar and acid content can be an efficient way to breed tastier cherry tomatoes (Casals et al, 2019).…”
