Physicochemical substances and bioactive components of wild cornelian cherry (Cornus mas L.) fruits in Erzincan province of Eastern Turkey

Turkey has a very rich flora due to diverse climatic and topographic conditions within the country. Cornelian cherry (Cornus mas L.) is an important wild edible fruits widely distributed in well known for its fruit antioxidants nutrients. In this study, phytochemical content of number genotypes Erzincan region were determined. The biochemical analysis included organic acids, sugars, vitamin C, antioxidant individual phenolic compounds. acid was between 253.09 mg/100 g 112.50 g. Vitamin C varied 115.85 mg/100g 43.77 Likewise, sugar from 6.17 g/100 4.06 When examined, highest 980.91 ?mol TE/g fresh weight (FW) base lowest 490.38 FW. gallic determined as among compounds, while amounts ranged 38.93 FW 4.31 As result it that are other phytochemicals examination, 24ER04 24ER08 came fore.
