Abstract

From the Southern Coast collection of Prunus cerasifera Ehrh. the fruits cultivars of the Nikitsky Gardens’ breeding Medovaya, Olenka, Rumyanaya Zorka and Idilliya were distinguished by their high taste qualities and the content of BAS. According to the norms of the Russian Federation, the fruits of these cultivars belong to the group of products with a high content of potassium and cuprum; satisfactory content of magnesium and ferrum, pastilles and jams from them belong to the group of products with a satisfactory content of potassium and cuprum. Cherry plum fruits, especially dark-colored ones, are a natural complex source of antioxidants, characterized by a high content of phenolic compounds and cuprum, and a satisfactory content of ascorbic acid and zinc. The content of pectin substances in the studied cultivars is comparable to that in apples. The fruits of the Idyllia cultivar with dark-colored pulp are distinguished by the maximum accumulation of pectins - 1.14%, ascorbic acid - 9.3, phenolic compounds – 441 mg/100 g, potassium – 11239, magnesium - 464, ferrum -10.81, zinc - 10.23, cuprum - 4.17, manganese - 0.228 mg/kg. Cherry plum fruits are characterized by a high content of BAS and are suitable for use in health nutrition both in fresh form and as raw materials for Food for Specific Health Use.

Highlights

Since 2018, Rospotrebnadzor has been implementing the project “Healthy Food is Health of the Nation” which mission is to improve the life quality and health of citizens by providing safe and high-quality food products [1]
The goal of the work was to study the content of biologically active substances, including essential elements in Prunus cerasifera Ehrh. fruits of the cultivars originated in the Nikita Botanical Gardens and their products
In the South Coast collection of Prunus cerasifera Ehrh. in the Nikita Botanical Gardens, fruits of the cultivars originated in the Nikita Botanical Gardens - Idillia, Medovaya, Olenka and Rumyanaya Zorka were selected due to their good taste and high amount of pectin substances

Summary

Introduction

Since 2018, Rospotrebnadzor has been implementing the project “Healthy Food is Health of the Nation” which mission is to improve the life quality and health of citizens by providing safe and high-quality food products [1]. To solve this problem, functional products (FP) - Food for Specific Health Use are developed. Nature conditions make Crimea a large center for the production of Food for Specific Health Use (functional products or FP) To achieve this goal, it is necessary to use costeffective fruit crops, when planting industrial orchards in Crimea. Their fruits have good taste, but are healthy and may be used as feedstock for FP
