Experimental data on the content of total polyphenols and rutin in promising feijoa varieties selected by Subtropical Scientific Center (Sochi, Russia) are presented. The performed analysis did not reveal a correlation between (r = 0.40), as well relationship time fruit ripening amount phenolic compounds them. compared differ significantly (LSD=5.67) (LSD=1.5). results obtained revealed with hi...

Acca sellowiana (Berg) Burret is a fruit species native to southern Brazil and Uruguay. Micropropagation techniques have been developed in order scale-up the mass propagation of new varieties. Micropropagated plants display anatomical, morphological physiological changes, which may negativelly affect their initial development acclimatization phase. The objective this work was compare morphometr...

Antioxidant activity of Feijoa sellowiana leaves and fruit peels was investigated employing various in vitro assay systems. IC50 for DPPH radical-scavenging activity was in the order: leaf aqueous extract, LW (7.25 ± 0.31) > leaf methanolic extract, LM (12.5 ± 0.34) > fruit peels aqueous extract, FW (20.25 ± 0.52) > fruit peels methanolic extract, FM (34.5.29 ± 0.44) μg ml, respectively. The ex...
