ABSTRACT
The present investigation aimed to assess the physicochemical, nutritional and antioxidant properties of fresh and dried roselle calyces. The fresh and dried (oven-dried and sun-dried) roselle calyces had considerable amount of crude fiber, crude protein, crude fat, total carbohydrate, minerals (Fe, Ca, K, Mg, Zn), ascorbic acid, total phenol, total flavonoid, total anthocyanin and antioxidant properties. Different chromatic parameters such as L*, a*, b*, H*, C* values of fresh and dried calyces were also investigated. The present investigation showed that both fresh and dried roselle calyces are generally acceptable as good source of nutrients and antioxidant potentials.
Key words: Physicochemical, Nutritional, Antioxidant, Roselle calyces, Chromatic parameters.
