Enzymatic carotenoid cleavage in star fruit (Averrhoa carambola)

Phytochemistry, 2003
This paper presents the first description of an enzyme fraction exhibiting carotenoid cleavage activity isolated from fruit skin of Averrhoa carambola. Partial purification of the enzyme could be achieved by acetone precipitation, ultrafiltration (300 kDa, 50 kDa), isoelectric focusing (pH 3-10) and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel ...

Dihydroabscisic alcohol from Averrhoa carambola fruit

Phytochemistry, 1994
Abstract (1′ S ,4 E )-2,3-Dihydroabscisic alcohol has been identified in an ether extract of starfruit ( Averrhoa carambola ). After purification by multilayer coil countercurrent chromatography (MLCCC) and HPLC, the structure of the new ABA derivative was elucidated by 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy.

Effect of Temperature on Enzymatic and Physiological Factors Related to Chilling Injury in Carambola Fruit (Averrhoa carambola L.)

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2001
Three groups of carambola fruits (Averrhoa carambola L.) were stored at 2 and 10 degrees C (85-90% relative humidity). The major physicochemical, physiological, and enzymatic responses of fruit were measured in each group over a 30-day period: chilling injury index (CII), decay (%), intracuticular waxes, cuticle permeability, pulp firmness, weight loss,

A comparative study on morphological and fruit quality traits of diploid and polyploid carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.) genotypes

Scientia Horticulturae, 2021
Abstract Artificially induced polyploid crops are generally associated with improved agronomic characteristics. Triploids and tetraploids previously created from the diploid carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.) cultivar 'B17′ (2n = 22) were used as experimental materials.

Two tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloids from the fruit of Averrhoa carambola

Phytochemistry Letters, 2014
The fruit of Averrhoa carambola, commonly known as star fruit or carambola, is popular in Southeast Asia and China. Two new tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloids, (1R*,3S*)-1-(5-hydroxymethylfuran-2-yl)-3-carboxy-6-hydroxy-8-methoxyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (1) and (1S*,3S*)-1-methyl-3-carboxy-6-hydroxy-8-methyoxyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (2),

Flavonoids isolated from the fresh sweet fruit of Averrhoa carambola , commonly known as star fruit

Phytochemistry, 2018
Thirteen flavonoids were isolated from the fresh sweet fruit of Averrhoa carambola L. (Oxalidaceae), commonly known as star fruit, and their structures were determined by spectroscopic and chemical methods. 8-Carboxymethyl-(+)-epicatechin methyl ester, pinobanksin 3-O-β-d-glucoside, and carambolasides M-Q were undescribed structures.

[Star fruit (Averrhoa carambola) toxic encephalopathy].

Revue neurologique, 2009
Ingestion of star fruit (Averrhoa carambola) can induce severe intoxication in subjects with chronic renal failure. Oxalate plays a key role in the neurotoxicity of star fruit. We report the cases of two patients with unknown chronic renal insufficiency who developed severe encephalopathy after ingestion of star fruit.
