Abstract

Changes in polyphenols of sapota fruit during maturation were determined by chemical analysis, paper chromatography and taste evaluation. Simple polyphenols decreased while polymeric leucoanthocyanidins increased. The reduction in astringency during maturation was found to be due to polymeric changes, the influence of other constituents such as sugar, and dilution of polyphenols by increase in fruit size.
