Abstract

Cilj ovog rada je bio literaturnim pretraživanjem utvrditi bioaktivni potencijal tradicionalnih sorti jabuka u Republici Hrvatskoj (RH) te procijeniti njihov potencijal za proizvodnju funkcionalnih proizvoda. Iako u literaturi nema puno navoda o tradicionalnim jabukama uzgojenim u RH, rezultati dostupnih istraživanja navode viši udio polifenolnih spojeva u uzorcima tradicionalnih sorti u usporedbi s konvencionalnim sortama. Također, polifenoli su najzastupljeniji u kori jabuke, stoga je i nusproizvod jabuke, zaostao nakon prerade, vrijedan izvor bioaktivnih spojeva. Pregledom literaturnih navoda o dokazanim zdravstvenim benefitima jabuke, svakako se može poticati konzumacija tradicionalnih sorti, kao i njihova prerada u funkcionalne proizvode. Analizom vanjskih i unutarnjih parametra kvalitete, rezultati istraživanja upućuju da tradicionalne sorte posjeduju kvalitetu potrebnu za prihvaćanje na tržištu. Uz preferenciju potrošača za organskim i ekološkim uzgojem voća, koje se održivo prerađuje, očekuje se daljnji porast potražnje tradicionalnih sorti jabuka, kao i njihovih proizvoda na tržištu RH.

Abstract (english)

This study aimed to investigate the bioactives of the traditional apple varieties grown in the Republic of Croatia (RC). Their potential for functional foods development is also assessed. Although there is not much data that address traditional apples, the available results state that traditional varieties are characterized by higher quality parameters as compared to conventional ones. As polyphenols are the most abundant in apple peel, apple pomace represents a valuable source of bioactive with positive impact on health. Beneficial effects of apple consummation have been already proven, thus the consumption of traditional varieties, and their processing into functional products is strongly recommended. Moreover, traditional varieties possess the external and internal quality parameters required for market acceptance. With consumer's preference for sustainable and organic fruit growing, which is sustainable processed, a further increase in demand for traditional apple varieties is expected, as well as their functional products on the market.
