摘要

Bioactive compounds are plant metabolites with antioxidant and therapeutic properties. This study compares the biochemical and mineral profiles of purple and yellow passion fruit genotypes from North-eastern India. The purple variety exhibited higher total phenolic content (646.04 mg GAE/100 g), carotenoids (0.98 mg/100 g), anthocyanins (213.85 mg/100 g), and antioxidant activity (66.50%) than the yellow genotype (195.54 mg GAE/100 g, 0.79 mg/100 g, 30.55 mg/100 g, and 59.03%, respectively). Conversely, yellow passion fruit had higher vitamin C (326.61 mg/100 g) and flavonoid content (143.55 mg/100 g) than purple (130.64 mg/100 g and 120.60 mg/100 g, respectively). LC-MS/MS profiling identified benzoic acid as the dominant organic acid in both, with luteolin (54.67 µg/g) being higher in purple and naringenin (39.03 µg/g) in yellow fruit. Amino acid profiling revealed serine (5.31 mg/g) as dominant in purple and glutamic acid (6.83 mg/g) in yellow. Mineral analysis indicated considerably higher zinc in yellow (71.25 ppm) as compared to purple (35.04 ppm). These results highlight genotype-specific nutritional richness, supporting the potential of passion fruit for functional food and nutraceutical applications.
