Comparison of Biochemical, Microbiological, and Toxicological Properties of Wild and Cultivated Sour Cherry Genotypes (Prunus cerasus L.)

Abstract

The investigation of two sour cherry genotypes such as the SC genotype, a small-fruited wild sour cherry, and the LC genotype, a large-fruited cultivated sour cherry, for antimicrobial, mutagen, antimutagen, and antioxidant activities, and bioactive compounds was aimed. Total phenolic, flavonoid, and ascorbic acid contents, antioxidant activity (DPPH, ABTS, FRAP), phenolic, sorbic, benzoic acids, sugar contents, and antibacterial activities (agar well diffusion, MIC, MBC, and MTC) were studied. Additionally, Salmonella typhimurium revision tests were made. The SC genotype had higher values for total phenolic, flavonoid, and ascorbic acid contents than the LC genotype. Similarly, antioxidant activity was found to be higher in the SC genotype. The dominant phenolic acids in both sour cherry genotypes were succinic acid and rutin trihydrate among the phenolic acid contents. While benzoic acid, sorbic acid, and sucrose could not be detected in both genotypes, glucose and fructose contents were higher in the LC genotype. Bacillus spizizenii ATCC 6633 was the most sensitive bacteria to both sour cherry extracts, and a weaker antibacterial activity was observed in the other test bacteria. In addition, no mutagenic and antimutagenic activities were found in both sour cherry genotypes. The SC genotype, a wild sour cherry, contains more bioactive components and exhibits higher antioxidant activity than the LC genotype, a cultivated variety. Consequently, because of its contents and biological activities, sour cherry has the potential to play a supportive role in human health.
