Rose, blackberry and redberry fruits were evaluated for total phenol, flavonoids, antioxidant activity, phenolic compounds, minerals and fatty acids composition. The total phenol contents of fruits varied between 112 mg GAE/ioog (ripened rose seed (RS)) and 702 mg GAE/loo g (redberry); flavonoid ranged from 25 (ripened RS) to 184 (redberry). The Redberry (81.64%) and blackberry (76.28%) fruits showed highest free radical scavenging abilities. Among minerals, P contents of samples ranged from 615.80 mg/Kg (blackberry) to 2208.08 mg/kg (redberry), K contents were found between 193.27 mg/loog (raw RS) and 18342.12 mg/kg (raw RF). Gallic acid contents significantly varied (p < 0.05) and ranged from 0.36 mg/kg in redberry to 4.97 mg/kg in blackberry. Oleic acid contents of oil samples were 12.29% (ripened RS) and 59.5o% (raw rose fruit (RF)). Lin oleic acid contents of samples ranged between 19.66% (raw RE) and 48.77% (raw RS). Rose, blackberry and raspberry fruits can serve as potential nutrient and natural antioxidant sources that can be utilized for nutraceutical and functional foods development.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessRose fruitblackberryredberrynatural antioxidantsfatty acidsmineralsArticle214188192N/AWOS:000393732100008Q4
