ASSESSMENT OF NUTRITIONAL AND ANTIOXIDANT PROPERTIES OF FRESH AND DEHYDRATED POMEGRANATE PEEL POWDER

Begum Mumtaz*, Neerubala and Verma Anisha

ABSTRACT

The study was carried out with objectives to determine the nutritional composition and antioxidant activity of fresh and dehydrated pomegranate peel. Chemical analysis for proximate content was done by using the standard procedures of AOAC. Iron, calcium and Vitamin C were determined by Thiocyanate method (colometric), volumetric method and 2,6-Dichlorophenol dye method respectively. Polyphenol content and % radical scavenging activity were assessed by the Folin- Ciocalteu method and DPPH method respectively. Moisture in fresh and dehydrated peel was found to be 64% and 6.5% respectively while ash content of fresh and dehydrated peel was 5 and 6.14%. Carbohydrate content was found to be in the range of 26.1g and 72.7g and protein was 3.5g and 12.2g. Micronutrients contents such as Iron, calcium, Vitamin C it was found to be in the range between 8.28 and 25.8mg, 65 and 338mg, 18 and 21mg respectively and energy ranged between 131kcal and 361.2kcal.

Keywords: Pomegranate peel, Nutritional composition, DPPH.
