Abstract:
Taking the pulp of two melon cultivars at seven different postharvest stages as the test materials，in vitro simulated digestion experiments and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (iCAP Qc) were employed to investigate the changes in the contents and bioaccessibility of nine mineral elements in melon pulp，in order to provide references for improving the bioaccessibility of nutrients in melon.The results showed that，across different postharvest stages，the average contents of the nine elements in the pulp of the two melon cultivars followed the order of Fe，B>Zn，Mn，Se>Na，Mg>K，Ca，while the bioaccessibility of these elements exhibited the opposite trend.Specifically，the ‘Nasimi’ cultivar was characterized by relatively high bioaccessibility of Zn，Se，B，Ca，K and Mg in the pulp，whereas the ‘Xizhoumi No.25’ cultivar had relatively high bioaccessibility of Mn，Fe and Na.With the extension of storage time，the bioaccessibility of B in the pulp of both cultivars showed an overall increasing trend，while that of Fe presented an overall decreasing trend；the bioaccessibility of Zn，Se，Mn，Ca and K displayed strong fluctuations.For the ‘Nasimi’ cultivar，the bioaccessibility of Mg showed an overall increasing trend，and the change in Na bioaccessibility featured a pattern of high levels at both initial and late stages and low level in the middle stage.In contrast，the bioaccessibility of Mg and Na in ‘Xizhoumi No.25’ showed strong fluctuations.In conclusion，the changes in the bioaccessibility of nutrient elements in melon pulp at different postharvest stages varied with cultivars and element types.
