Variations in carambola infestation rates by Bactrocera carambolae drew and hancock (Diptera: Tephritidae) with fruit availability in a carambola orchard [PDF]
Abstract The relationship between the infestation rate of carambola fruits by Bactrocera carambolae Drew and Hancock was investigated in a carambola orchard. Phenology of the fruits was found to influence percentage infestation of fruits by B. carambolae

CARAMBOLA FRUIT FLY SITUATION IN LATIN AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEAN [PDF]
The carambola fruit fly, Bactrocera carambolae Drew and Hancock (CFF) is a member of the oriental fruit fly species complex. CFF was recognized to be present in Suriname in 1986, but it appears to have been present since at least 1975. CFF originated in Asia, where it occurs in Indonesia, Malaysia and southern Thailand.

USE OF CARAMBOLA (AVERRHOA CARAMBOLA L. ´FWANG TUNG´) FRUIT AT TWO STAGES OF MATURITY FOR FRESH-CUT PRODUCTS [PDF]
Carambola fruit (‘Fwang Tung’) were picked at two stages of maturity: mature-green (50% yellow) and mature (100% yellow). Fruit were washed with water, dipped in NaOCl solution (200 mg.L-1 for 5 minutes), and stored over night at 10°C. Fruit were sliced manually in to pieces of approximately 1 cm thickness.

Harvest Maturity Influences Fruit Quality of Carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.)
Journal of Horticultural Science & Technology, 2020Harvest maturity determines the shelf life and nutritional quality of fruits. The present study was planned to determine the effect of harvest maturity on fruit quality of carambola. Fruits of carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.) cv. “Arkin” were harvested at five maturity stages, i.e., M1 (100% green), M2 (75% green and 25% yellow), M3 (50% green and 50%

Carotenoids of the fruit of Averrhoa carambola
Phytochemistry, 1983Abstract The carotenoids of the tropical fruit Averrhoa carambola were investigated and from most of them mass spectra were taken. The total carotenoid content was 22 μg/g fr. wt. The carotenoid pattern was uncommon, the main pigments were phytofluene (17%), ζ-carotene (25%), β-cryptoflavin (34%) and mutatoxanthin (14%).

Additional volatile constituents of carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.) fruit
Flavour and Fragrance Journal, 1989AbstractThe volatiles of fresh carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.) were separated from the fruit pulp by high‐vacuum distillation and subsequent solvent extraction (pentane‐dichloromethane, 2:1). In three fractions obtained by preseparation of the concentrated extract with adsorption chromatography on silica gel (pentane‐diethyl ether gradient) the ...

Mechanisms of star fruit (Averrhoa carambola) toxicity: A mini-review
Toxicon, 2020The star fruit (Averrhoa carambola) is consumed in high amounts in Asia and Central/South America. It contains oxalic acid and caramboxin. In some individuals, its ingestion may lead to nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity. The nephrotoxic effect is due to oxalate deposition in renal tubules resulting in acute tubular necrosis and interstitial nephritis ...
