Introduction: For the food industry and trade, it is very important to obtain powders based on fruits or vegetables by means of drying techniques that allow them to preserve their nutritional, organoleptic properties and also extend the life time by offering new commercialization possibilities. Studies have made it possible to optimize drying techniques by obtaining water-free products in more than 80% with a high commercial value. To microencapsulate the mango pulp (Mangifera indica L) flounder variety by the Spray Drying method and to evaluate its potential antioxidant activity.Methodology: The fruits were collected in the municipality of Turbana - Bolívar (10º 16 '22 "N 75º 26' 38" W), Colombia. The pulps obtained from the healthy fruits were microencapsulated by the spray drying method. The obtained microcapsules were measured the particle size and the mineral content was determined. The antioxidant activity was determined by three methodologies: total phenols, DPPH • and ABTS • +.Results: The results obtained demonstrate that the microcapsules of the mango pulp (M. indica L) have a mineral content in the following order of importance Calcium> Phosphorus> Iron. The IC50 values for the DPPH • and ABTS • assay were found to be 110.54 ± 1.5 μg / mL and 65.33 ± 1.0 μg / mL respectively. The total phenol content was 73.11 ± 1.54 mg AG / 100 mg of microcapsules, which may be related to the antioxidant activity.Conclusion: The spray drying method was a suitable technique to microcapsulate the mango pulp (M.indica L), which were shown to possess antioxidant activity.

Objetivo: Caracterizar y evaluar las selecciones Ataulfo diamante’, ‘Zafiro’ y ‘Citlalli’ de mango (Mangifera indica L.), obtenidas en el programa de mejoramiento genético de mango en el Campo Experimental Rosario Izapa del INIFAP.Diseño/metodología/aproximación: Se realizó la caracterización morfológica de acuerdo a los descriptores propuestos por la UPOV. Se evaluó el comportamiento agronómico de los clones, y con los resultados de las variables se aplicó un análisis de varianza y una comparación de medias de acuerdo a Tukey con un a=0.05.Resultados: Se encontraron diferencias morfológicas entre los clones caracterizados y evaluados; las diferencias fueron en morfología del fruto, sabor y rendimiento.Limitaciones del estudio/implicaciones: El potencial productivo y la calidad de los clones de mango estará en función del manejo en campo y postcosecha que reciban los frutos.Hallazgos/conclusiones: Los clones ‘Citlalli’, ‘Ataulfo Diamante’ y ‘Ataulfo Elite’ presentan características productivas de alto potencial y registran calidad para ser considerados en programas de mejora de la productividad del cultivo en la región del Soconusco, Chiapas, México.
