Özet
Blueberries are very beneficial for human
health in recent years due to the high levels of antioxidants and many other
components they contain. This study compared Duke, Darrow, Patriot, Bluecrop
blueberry varieties grown as standard in the Northern Marmara Region. The first
harvest was made at maturity (June 25, 2024). Fruit weight (g), fruit width and
length (mm), L*, a*, b* color values, SÇKM (%), TEA (%), pH amounts, Ascorbic
acid, total phenolic substances, antioxidant amounts were determined. In blueberry
varieties, fruit weight was determined between 1.29 g and 1.79 g, fruit width
was determined between 13.52 mm- 15.33 mm, and fruit length was determined
between 10.21 mm- 11.49 mm. L* value was found between 27.23-32.25, a* value
between 2.27-2.84, b* value between (-3.98)- (-6.29). SSC amounts were found
between 7.73%-11.17%, TA amounts between 1.26%-2.97%, and pH values between
4.01-4.47. Ascorbic acid amounts were found between 1.14-1.38, total phenolic
was found between 0.183-035, and antioxidant amounts were found between
2.97-3.25.
