Changes of antioxidants in the seeds of mandarin (Citrus reticulata) and bitter orange (Citrus aurantium) fruits during three stages of ripening (IM, SM and CM) were evaluated. Comparison between the two varieties showed that Mandarin exhibited the highest total polyphenols and flavonoids contents at IM and SM stages, respectively while bitter orange possesses the highest tannins content at SM stage. A total of 22 phenolic compounds were identified in mandarin and bitter orange seeds, including hydroxybenzoic acids (3), hydroxycinnamic acids (6), flavanones (3), flavanols (2), flavonols (3), flavones (3). simple phenol (1) and coumarin (1). The percentages of phenolic classes were found to vary during ripening which extents depended on the variety. During mandarin ripening, IM, SM and CM stages were characterized respectively by the presence of naringin, hesperidin and gallic acid as the most abundant mandarin compounds. In the case of bitter orange, naringin and neohesperidin were the major compounds during fruit maturation. Antioxidant activity was employed by two complementary test systems namely DPPH free radical scavenging and beta-carotene/linoleic acid systems. The antioxidant capacity varied during ripening with bitter orange activity being higher than that of mandarin. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
