Popis: This study reports preliminary findings for total phenolics, flavonoids, ascorbic acid, reducing potential, and radical scavenging of pawpaw pulp extracts from underripe, ripe, and overripe fruits. Total phenolics were affected by ripeness {underripe = ripe > overripe}, as were flavonoids (ripe
