DEVELOPMENT OF A COMPREHENSIVE METHOD FOR ASSESSING THE QUALITY OF CITRUS FRUITS

The article presents a systematic analysis of the biochemical and phytochemical composition of citrus fruits, from the point of view of biologically active substances, and substantiates the need for an integrated approach to assessing the quality of raw materials. The study results demonstrated an uneven distribution of citrus bioactive compounds across fractions, the importance of flavonoids and limonoids as profile markers, and the fact that ascorbic acid and organic acids are rapidly changing quality indicators. Furthermore, it was noted that pectin and fiber matrix components technologically determine the preservation and extraction of bioactive compounds. It is recommended to jointly interpret the set of markers for processing and optimize storage conditions.
