COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF POLYPHENOLIC AND MINERAL COMPOUNDS IN POMEGRANATE (PUNICA GRANATUM L.) PEEL EXTRACT
Abstract
Pomegranate peel, a by-product of juice production, contains bioactive compounds with significant nutritional and therapeutic properties.
This study aimed to isolate and characterize polyphenolic compounds from Punica granatum L. peel and to evaluate their nutritional, functional, and mineral composition [1-2].
Extraction was performed using distilled water at 60 °C, followed by precipitation with gelatin. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) were used for compound identification [3-5].
The tannin content in pomegranate peel was 77.8%, with rutin, isorhamnetin, gallic acid, and hyperoside being the main flavonoids identified. Mineral analysis revealed the presence of Ca, Na, Mg, Fe, Cu, and Al in the tannin powder [6-9].
Pomegranate peel extract demonstrated high polyphenolic content with potential applications as functional food ingredients and nutraceuticals[10-12].
