Abstract
To observe the functionality of Fuji apples, this study compared and analyzed the general and anti-oxidative components of apples based on production region. This study found that DPPH radical scavenging activities among parts of apple from the Chungju region were 82.84% in peels, 26.98% in peel-flesh, and 18.89% in apple flesh, and these values were lower than those from other regions (P<0.01). Antioxidative was 48.64% in the apple core, which was higher than those in peel-flesh and apple flesh. ABTS radical scavenging activity was highest (79.80%) in peels of apples from the Andong region, whereas values in peel-flesh and apple flesh were highest in apples from the Yesan region (P<0.01). For antioxidative activities in the apple core, apples from the Chungju region showed more than twice the value (52.34%) of other regions. Phenol contents in peels were significantly high [12.03 mg gallic acid equivalent (GAE)/g] in apples from the Muju region, whereas phenol contents in peel-flesh were high (6.01 mg GAE/g) in those from the Andong region. Antioxidative activity in apple flesh was significantly high (5.57 mg GAE/g) in apples from the Yesan region. For antioxidative activities in the apple core, apples from Chungju region showed a relatively high value (6.53 mg GAE/g) (P<0.01), although values were low in apple peel, peel-flesh, and apple flesh. For the combined amount of flavonoids, values in apples from the Yesan region were high in apple peel, peel-flesh, and apple core [56.23 mg quercetin equivalent (QE)/g (P<0.01), 4.05 mg QE/g (P<0.05), and 4.00 mg QE/g (P<0.01), respectively], whereas flavonoid content in apples from the Andong region was high in apple flesh [4.35 mg QE/g (P<0.01)]. The results show that anti-oxidative activities were relatively higher in apple peel than flesh.
