The kiwi berry ( Actinidia arguta ) has been widely studied because of its rich phenolic, flavonoid, and vitamin C contents. Numerous reports have demonstrated that fruit peels contain higher phenolic content antioxidant activity than flesh. In this study, the phytochemical activities peel flesh extracts six berries were analyzed from four regions (namely, Dandong, Benxi, Taian, Tonghua) in China. was determined using peroxyl radical scavenging capacity (PSC) cellular (CAA) assays. contents 10.77, 13.09, 10.38 times richer flesh, respectively. addition, PSC CAA values those analysis separation phenolics performed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-diode-array detectormass spectrometry/mass (DAD-MS/MS) system, results illustrated protocatechuic acid, caffeic chlorogenic quinic acid major compounds. conclusion, study indicated contains a source antioxidants. These data are great significance for full development utilization these China to produce nutraceutical functional foods.
