The study aimed to preliminarily evaluate the nutritional values of the grapes from three table grape varieties (Vitis vinifera L.) including green grape, ‘Cardinal’ grape, and ‘Mariaue Finger’ grape from Ninh Thuan province, Vietnam. The analyses were conducted as per standard test methods. There were generally significant differences in energy-yielding nutrients among the three studied samples. These grapes presented moderate concentrations of carbohydrates and proteins ranging from 10.08 ± 0.48 to 12.07 ± 0.28 mg/100 g and from 0.37 ± 0.05 to 0.42 ± 0.04 mg/100 g, respectively, but no lipids content. The analysis revealed the presence of vitamin C and five minerals including Na, K, Mg, Fe, and Ca. The contents of Na, K, and Fe in green grapes were significantly higher than those of the two others. The phytochemical screening indicated the presence of flavonoids, steroids, and saponins, but not alkaloids, tannins, and terpenoids. The phenolic content in the three grape varieties was quantified at a moderate level, but low flavonoid content was found. The same pattern was also observed in the antioxidant activity (DPPH IC50), positively correlating to phenolic and flavonoid compounds contents. These findings scientifically contribute to the food database system, particularly those related to the new variety- the ‘Mariaue Finger’ grape -, which can be exploited for diet planning.
Resumo
O estudo teve como objetivo avaliar preliminarmente os valores nutricionais de uvas de três variedades de uva de mesa (Vitis vinifera L.), incluindo uva verde, uva ‘Cardinal’ e uva ‘Mariaue Finger’ da província de Ninh Thuan, Vietname. As análises foram realizadas através dos métodos de ensaio padrão. Foram observadas diferenças geralmente significativas entre as três amostras estudadas nos nutrientes fornecedores de energia. Estas uvas possuíam concentrações moderadas de hidratos de carbono e proteínas, variando entre 10,08 ± 0,48 e 12,07 ± 0,28 mg/100 g e entre 0,37 ± 0,05 e 0,42 ± 0,04 mg/100 g, respetivamente, mas sem a presença de lípidos. A análise revelou a presença de vitamina C e de cinco minerais, incluindo Na, K, Mg, Fe e Ca. Os teores de Na, K e Fe nas uvas verdes foram significativamente superiores aos das outras duas. O rastreio fitoquímico indicou a presença de flavonóides, esteróides e saponinas, mas não de alcalóides, taninos e terpenóides. O teor fenólico nas três variedades de uva foi quantificado a um nível moderado, mas com um baixo teor de flavonóides. O mesmo padrão foi também observado na atividade antioxidante (DPPH IC50), correlacionando-se positivamente com os teores de compostos fenólicos e flavonóides. Estes resultados contribuem cientificamente para o sistema de base de dados de alimentos, particularmente no respeitante à nova variedade - a uva ‘Mariaue Finger’ -, que pode ser explorada para o planeamento da dieta.
