Introduction Dragon fruit peel (Selenicereus spp.), a major by-product of fruit processing, is a source of dietary fibre, minerals, and bioactive compounds; However combined effect of maturity stage and variety on nutritional, functional, antioxidant, mineral, anti-nutritional and structural properties of dragon fruit...
Although the chemical composition and biological properties of orange peels undergo significant changes during fruit development, the extent of variation in metabolites and their activities remains poorly characterized. In this study, the fruit development characteristics, chemical composition, antioxidant capacity and...
Approximately 50% of fruit is lost to postharvest spoilage due to the high metabolic rate of fresh produce. Reducing postharvest losses is crucial in eradicating hunger, reducing poverty and ensuring food security in line with Sustainable Development Goals 1 and 2. Understanding the optimal harvesting time for fruit is...

This study investigated developmental changes in phenolic compounds and condensed tannin structure in the berry skins of three table grape cultivars, ‘Rosetta’ (RT), ‘Shooting Star’ (SS), and ‘Hongju Seedless’ (HS), from flowering to harvest. Spectrophotometric analyses were used to quantify total phenolic, proanthocya...
