The study revealed significant varietal differences in both nutritional and bioactive components. The red apple demonstrated superior protein (12.37%) and fat (15.17%) content, while the green variety showed higher carbohydrate (47.05%) and crude fibre (20.50%) levels. Phytochemical screening identified distinct bioactive patterns: the green variety exhibited strong positive results for tannins (++) and phenols (++), whereas the red variety tested positive for saponins, a compound absent in the green apple. Both varieties tested positive for alkaloids and flavonoids. The results demonstrate fundamental metabolic specialization between varieties: the red apple represents a nutritionally-dense profile with balanced phytochemical characteristics, while the green variety exemplifies a digestive-health specialized strategy prioritizing fibre and potent astringent compounds. Strong correlations were observed between proximate and phytochemical parameters, particularly between high fibre content and tannin concentration, and between high protein and saponin presence in the red variety. These findings provide a scientific basis for cultivar-specific applications in functional food development, nutritional supplementation, and dietary recommendations. The study establishes that green and red apples constitute distinct nutritional entities requiring differentiated utilization strategies in food systems and health applications. ...Preview Download Preview +Other Pharmaceutical Technology project topics and materials you might be interested in»Comparative analysis of the acidity of different brands of folic acid sold in Owerri»Knowledge, attitude and practice of prescription of drugs among school of community health science College of Health Sciences and Technology, Tsafe, Zamfara state»Spectroscopic analysis of the first eluate of Piper Guineense extract»Analysis of the impact of electronic prescribing on medication safety and efficiency»Phytochemical screening, proximate and elemental analysis of two varieties of bitter kola (Garcinia kola) seed sold in Mariri market, Kano state»Identification of phytochemicals responsible for anti-ulcer activity of acioa barteri using high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD)»Antimicrobial activity of Acioa Barteri and its synergestic effect with Darlium Guineense»Formulation of ointment using Mitracarpus Scaber extract and its antifungal activity against clinical isolate»Comparative analysis of different absorbance of paracetamol using spectrophotometer»Phytochemical analysis and antifungal activity of Syzagium Aromaticum against some fungal isolates»Formulation and evaluation of toilet soap using suitable raw materials»Comparative analysis of phytochemical constituent and the proximate composition of green and red apple
