Mineral Content and Bioactive Potential of Quince (Cydonia oblonga) Peels for Value-Added Food Production. (PubMed, Plant Foods Hum Nutr) - Jun 19, 2026 - "On the other hand, quince peels are an excellent source of chlorogenic acid (5-CQA) which average value was 2870 mg/kg DW, and its derivatives, such as neochlorogenic acid (3-CQA), cryptochlorogenic acid (4-CQA) as well as 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid (3,5-DCQA). The surprising component of the quince peel was rutin (average content 3940 mg/kg DW). These findings suggest that quince peels represent a promising ingredient for the development of functional food products, particularly as natural mineral and antioxidant-rich additives in bakery products, fruit-based preparations, and meat formulations."
