Abstract

Garcinia mangostana Linn. (GML), also known as mangosteen, is a tropical fruit and is called the “Queen of Fruits” and “King of Fruits” in some Southeast Asian countries. While GML fruit is used as a therapeutic supplement in traditional medicine and a food ingredient in Southeast Asian cuisine, the peel of GML plant is used as a natural dye. Although GML fruits contain many bioactive compounds, the peel of the fruit, which accumulates in the environment and becomes waste as a result of consumption and processing, becomes a factor that increases air pollution due to the foul-smelling compounds they emit. In this study, the phytochemical content of fruit peel, which has negative effects as waste, was analyzed. LC-MS/MS results showed that the main components of the fruit peel extract were vanillic acid, baicalein, and vanillin compounds. As a result of the GC-MS/MS analysis, the presence of high levels of palmitic and stearic acid in the GML peel was determined. Additionally, it was observed that the phytochemical contents changed significantly in the pyrolyzed samples of the peel. In particular, LC-MS/MS results showed that GML peel has a high commercial potential thanks to the bioactive compounds it contains.

Garcinia Mangostana Linn. Kabuğunun Metanol-Kloroform Ekstraktı ve Piroliz Sıvısının Fitokimyasal İçeriği

Abstract

Garcinia mangostana Linn., Mangostan olarak da bilinen (GML), tropik bir meyve olup bazı Güneydoğu Asya ülkelerinde “Meyvelerin Kraliçesi” ve “Meyvelerin Kralı” olarak adlandırılmaktadır. GML meyvesi geleneksel tıpta tedavi edici bir takviye ve Güneydoğu Asya mutfağında bir gıda maddesi olarak kullanılırken, GML bitkisinin kabuğu doğal bir boya olarak kullanılmaktadır. GML meyveleri birçok biyoaktif bileşik içermesine rağmen tüketim ve işlenme sonucu çevrede biriken ve atık haline gelen meyvenin kabuğu, yaydığı kötü kokulu bileşikler nedeniyle hava kirliliğini artıran bir faktör haline gelmektedir. Bu çalışmada atık olarak olumsuz etkileri olan meyve kabuğunun fitokimyasal içeriği analiz edilmiştir. LC-MS/MS sonuçlarına göre, meyve kabuğu ekstraktının ana bileşenlerinin vanilik asit, baicalein ve vanilin bileşikleri olduğunu gösterdi. GC-MS/MS analizi sonucunda GML kabuğunda yüksek düzeyde paltimik ve stearik asit varlığı belirlendi. Ayrıca kabuğun piroliz örneklerinde fitokimyasal içeriklerin önemli ölçüde değiştiği gözlendi. Özellikle LC-MS/MS sonuçlarında, GML kabuğunun içerdiği biyoaktif bileşikler sayesinde yüksek bir ticari potansiyele sahip olduğunu gösterdi.
