China, the largest pomelo producer, has many famous varieties. However, there been limited research on comparative of chemical compositions and antioxidant activities among different varieties from China. In work, five one grapefruit variety China were studied by investigating their composition activity. Volatiles in dichloromethane extract peels measured using gas chromatography - mass spectrometry. Shatianyu contained 27 volatile compounds, was most abundant volatiles. Total protein, phenols, flavonoid determined spectrophotometry. Changshanhuyou more phenols flavonoids, while protein. The amount vitamin C, sugars, organic acids evaluated liquid chromatography. had highest C lower acids. Guanximiyu possessed higher as compared to other four pulp no obvious correlation with total falconoid, C. This study is helpful understand nutritional value health function six Chinese
