Effect of maturity stage on the content of fatty acids and antioxidant activity of ‘Hass’ avocado

2011-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Avocado (Persea americana) is an important tropical fruit and a good source of lipophilic phytochemicals such as monounsaturated fatty acids, carotenoids, vitamin E and sterols that have been inversely related to cardiovascular diseases. However, their antioxidant capacities have received far less attention compared with hydrophilic phytochemicals in this fruit. In this context, this study evaluated the effect of...
