Ajila, Naidu, Bhat, and Prasada Rao (2007) studied the polyphenol content of ripe and unripe mango varieties. Their results showed the total phenolic content to be 109.7 mg/100 g DM in un-ripened (‘Raspuri’ cultivar) mango peels. Ripened mango peels contained 436 µg/g DM of carotenoid (‘Raspuri’ cultivar) and 565 mg/100 g DM anthocyanins (‘Badami’ cultivar). Pott, Breithaupt, and carle (2003) also analysed the carotenoid content of mango (‘kent’ cultivar).
