متن کاملChanges in Nutrient Composition, Antioxidant Properties, and Enzymes Activities of Snake Tomato (Trichosanthes cucumerina) during Ripening
Snake tomato (Trichosanthes cucumerina) has been cultivated and used as a replacement for Lycopersicum esculentum in many Asian and African diets. Matured T. cucumerina fruits were harvested at different ripening stages and separated into coats and pulps for analyses to determine their suitability for use in culinary. They were analyzed for the nutritional composition and antioxidant potential ...
متن کاملStress response of Trichosanthes cucumerina L. (Cucurbitaceae) to elevated UV-B doses
UV-B radiation induced alterations in the contents of photosynthetic pigments, antioxidants (phenolics and ascorbic acid) and chlorophyll fluorescence in two tropical variants of Trichosanthes cucumerina L. – Cucurbitaceae. The Green (Variant A) and Light Green (Variant B) variants of T. cucumerina, which had earlier been shown to differ in their total phenolics contents, were used for the stud...
