TABLE 1 Effects of roasting conditions on the total phenolics of cocoa beans of Forastero, Nacional, Trinitario, UAF, and T×UAF cultivars originating from various geographical regions
TABLE 2 Effects of roasting conditions on the antioxidant capacity measured by ABTS assay of cocoa beans of Forastero, Nacional, Trinitario, UAF, and T×UAF cultivars originating from various geographical regions
TABLE 3 Effects of roasting conditions on the antioxidant capacity measured by DPPH assay of cocoa beans of Forastero, Nacional, Trinitario, UAF, and T×UAF cultivars originating from various geographical regions
TABLE 4 Correlation between total phenolic content and antioxidant activities in raw and roasted seeds of different cocoa cultivars
FIGURE 1 Changes in the ferrous ion chelating activity of the cocoa bean samples of Forastero, Nacional, Trinitario, UAF, and T×UAF cultivars roasted at different temperatures and relative air humidities. B: Brazil; E: Ecuador; V: Venezuela; PNG: Papua New Guinea; G: Ghana; I: Indonesia; C: Cameroon. Results are presented as the mean ± SD from triplicate determinations. Bars that share the same letter within the cultivars are not significantly different according to Tukey’s HSD test at p > 0.05.
