Phytochemical and Antioxidant Profile of Pitaya (Hylocereus hybridum) Fruits: Elucidation Through Chemical Fractionation [PDF]

Journal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT The increasing global demand for diverse and health‐promoting foods has led to the expansion of tropical fruit cultivation beyond their native regions, notably into the Mediterranean area. This shift necessitates a deeper understanding of their phytochemical profiles, as environmental factors in new cultivation contexts can significantly ...
