| Abstract |
Persimmon is a good source of nutrients, especially carbohydrates, dietary fibers, vitamins, minerals, carotenoids, and phenolic compounds, among other bioactive phytochemicals. It is climacteric and respiration rates and ethylene gas production regulate its maturation. Persimmon is generally classified into astringent and non-astringent types. Strategies concerning new methods of using it through technological and biotechnological processes are important to reduce postharvest losses and are in line with the idea of circular economy. Therefore, we aimed to compile an up-to-date and brief review of persimmon ' s chemical composition, bioactive compounds, and its potential use in the development of new products. |
