Abstract

Fruits have been an integral part of the human diet for centuries. One very popular fruit that contains many nutrients and has a unique aromatic flavor is the kiwi fruit, or rather the Actinidia fruit. The Actinidia genus includes many species, some of which have been commercially available for a long time, while others are so-called "novelties" on the market. An example of such a species is Actinidia arguta (the so-called "mini kiwi"), which is distinguished by its smaller fruit size and the possibility of eating it with the skin on. The Actinidia arguta plant is one of the largest sources of many biologically active compounds that positively affect the human body; these include vitamin C, B vitamins and polyphenols (flavonoids and phenolic acids). To evaluate the chemical composition of the Actinidia arguta plant, the green parts of the plant and its fruits were examined by thin-layer chromatography methods. Chemical profiling was used to confirm the high content of phenolic compounds and naturally occurring sugars.
