Resumo

This study analyzed six uvaia (Eugenia pyriformis Cambess) accessions ('Comum', `Rugosa', `Doce de Patos de Minas', `Pera', `Rugosa Doce' and `Dura') with respect to chemical composition, nutritional value, bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacity. The `Rugosa Doce' and `Doce de Patos de Minas' accessions were sweeter (20.18 g 100 g(-1) and 18.88 g 100 g(-1), respectively), while the `Rugosa' and `Vera' accessions were less acid (0.28 g 100 g(-1)and 0.33 g 100 g(-1), respectively). Terpenes were the major volatile compounds (46.75%) identified by SPME-GC/MS. The `Rugosa' accession contained high levels of fibers (43.81 g 100 g(-1)) and minerals (2235.10 mg 100 g(-1)). The `Rugosa Doce' and `Rugosa' accessions were distinguished by total flavonoids and phenolic compounds. `Rugosa Doce' and `Rugosa' may potentially serve as a raw material for food, while `Doce de Patos de Minas' and `Vera' can be used for cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries purposes.
