Abstract

<p>The concentration of flavonoids and the composition of volatile components in the juice of 16 shiikuwasha (Citrus depressa Hayata strains) and five other citrus fruits were investigated using high-performance liquid chromatography and headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, respectively. The concentration of 13 flavonoids in these juices was determined. Nobiletin was detected in shiikuwasha juice (1.4-18.1 mg/100 mL). The main volatile components in shiikuwasha juice were limonene, γ-terpinene, p-cymene and linalool. Principal component analysis was performed with the concentration of flavonoids and the composition of volatile components. Scores for the 1st and 2nd principal components were plotted as a scatter diagram. Three groups were formed with shiikuwasha alone, but Ogimi kugani and Katsuyama kugani were located far apart. The citrus fruits of Okinawa prefecture were characterized by their volatile components and flavonoid constituents.</p>
