摘要: The bioactive compounds of 16 tomato cultivars, grown in the same field for 2 years (2003 and 2004) were investigated. Lycopene (5.7–26.3 mg kg−1) was predominant carotenoid, while β-carotene (2.1–11.2 a small amount lutein (0.02–0.49 found all cultivars. Kagome 77, richest source total carotenoids L-ascorbic acid, also showed highest antioxidant activity. β-Carotene contents tomatoes differed between statistically. Antioxidant activities 48 118 μmol TEAC 100 g−1. A significant correlation only observed acid (2.2–13.8 g−1) activity using assay.
