Garcinia mangostana, Characterization, ChemicalAbstract
Garcinia mangostana fruit contains biomolecules with great antioxidant capacity; causing interest in the pharmaceutical industry. The present study describes biochemical characteristics of the mangosteen fruit cultivated in Tuxtla Chico, Chiapas. The fruits were ripened at 23° C, 70% R.H., and were analyzed at 0, 3, 6, 9 and 12 d after harvest. The fruits presented high amounts of sugars (150 mg/g w.f. to 280 mg/g w.f.) of which trees 26 and 219 presented the highest peak on day 12. Total solubles reached maximum values on day 0 (20.1 °Brix) in tree 26, tree 94 registered the highest average (19.5 °Brix). Phenolic compounds were quantified at 17.76 µg/g and 49.21 µg/g in pulp and peel, respectively; corroborating that the peel, which is discarded, has potential molecules for exploitation. The antioxidant activity in pulp increased during post-harvest in the applied methods: DDPH, ABTS and FRAP, being FRAP the one that presented the highest capture activity (178 mg EAA/100 g), where tree 284 registered the highest average (111.08 mg EAA/100 g), proving that G. mangostana fruits grown in Tuxtla Chico, Chiapas, show antioxidant potential.
