3.1.4. Tocopherols

In what concerns tocopherols (Table 1), two isoforms were detected, α and γ, with a clear prevalence of α-tocopherol (0.77 ± 0.03 in a total of 0.93 ± 0.03 mg/100 g fw). In a previous investigation, haskap fruits also revealed α-tocopherol as the most abundant isoform (0.42 mg/100 g fw), despite the lower concentration detected, in comparison to the one found in the present study. In the referred work, the authors also found β, γ, and δ-tocopherol [19].
