A good inverse correlation (R2 > 0.8) was observed among
content of arils, polyphenols content and antioxidant activity of the
juices, demonstrating that the presence of the peels during the
pressing process could represent an advantage in terms of functional
substances, as previously stated by Rosenblat and Aviram
(2006). Polyphenols and TEAC are only slightly correlated, further
confirming that polyphenols are not the only substances implied in
the antioxidant activity.
