Information on the nutritional properties of tropical fruits is currently limited to chemical analysis of vitamins, minerals and fibre. This project aims to identify additional nutritional components within tropical fruits by assessing activities against a range of cell-based assays. Selected assays will represent cellular processes relating to e.g. lipid metabolism, cancer prevention, and antioxidant effects. Assay-based fractionation approaches will be used to identify molecular bioactives acting either alone or synergistically with other components. Results will be used in public health and/or marketing communication, and will provide targets for breeding and varietal selection programmes.

关于热带水果营养特性的信息目前仅限于维生素、矿物质和纤维的化学分析。该项目旨在通过对一系列基于细胞的测定方法进行评估，确定热带水果中的其他营养成分。选定的测定将代表与例如脂质代谢、癌症预防和抗氧化作用相关的细胞过程。基于分析的分级方法将用于鉴定单独作用或与其他组分协同作用的分子生物活性物质。研究结果将用于公共卫生和/或营销传播，并将为育种和品种选择方案提供目标。
