RESUMO

Underutilized fruits are thought to be nutrient and antioxidant gold mines. Despite their high nutritive value, therapeutic properties, and ability to grow in adverse soil and climatic conditions, they have received little attention. However, these underutilized fruits are an important component of traditional foods, particularly in arid and semiarid regions of Rajasthan. Lasoda (Cordia myxa) contains numerous phytochemicals that contribute to its antioxidant potential, including tannins, flavonoids, phenolic acids, xanthones, terpenes, and saponins. The primary goal of this review is to emphasize the importance of extracting bioactive compounds from lasoda and evaluating their antioxidant potential. Furthermore, this review emphasizes the major areas for the application of lasoda and its extract as prospective positive health agents that can be used in the preparation of functional foods. The use of lasoda may also improve the value of bakery products and meat quality and prevent postharvest losses. This review is a pilot article that can aid in the nutritional profiling of Cordia fruits and seeds, and it provides information on the effective and efficient use of this underutilized fruit in the food and nutraceutical industries.

RESUMO

The present investigation aimed to elucidate the effects of chitosan (CH) and guar gum (GG) based composite edible coating on physicochemical quality and storability of Kinnow fruit under ambient conditions. Composite coating materials were prepared by using tamarind (TAM) seed starch and jackfruit (JACK) seed starch with CH and GG separately. The results indicated that GG + TAM coated fruits maintained significantly (P ≤ 0.01) lower physiological losses in weight (PLW) (3.12 %), decay incidence (0.83 %), and respiration rate (13.57 ml CO2 kg-1 h-1) compared to control. The reduced activity of pectin methylesterase (PME) (0.97 µmol min-1 g-1 FW) and lipoxygenase (LOX) (1.97 µmol min-1 g-1 FW) were noted in GG + TAM coated fruits. Also, the GG + TAM coated fruits retained higher fruit firmness (6.77 N), titratable acidity (TA) (0.94 %), ascorbic acid (AA) (27.83 mg 100 g-1), total phenols (213.05 mg GAE 100 g-1 FW), antioxidants activity (23.57 µmol TE g-1) along with higher sensory score over the control. Based on findings, it can be concluded that GG + TAM coating could be gainfully utilized for prolonging the shelf life of Kinnow fruits up to 25 days without losing desirable quality traits at ambient storage.
