Resumo: The onion is a major source of antioxidants between fruits and vegetables consumed in the Brazil. The nutraceutical importance of the onion is mainly due to the antioxidants such as quercetin and thiols. These substances have an effect in reducing inflammation, allergies, viral diseases, cancer prevention, cardiovascular diseases and cataracts. The cultivar of onion developed by Epagri, Bola Precoce, presented relatively high quercetin content in analysis conducted by CNPH, EMBRAPA. Epagri conducted analyzes of the mineral composition of onion bulbs produced in Ituporanga Experimental Station and by some farmers in the region of the Alto Vale do Itajaí, Santa Catarina State, Brazil. The mineral nutrient content in the bulbs were higher than those presented in the Brazilian Table of Composition of Foods. Therefore, the quality of the onion produced in this region regarding the mineral aspects was satisfactory.

A importância nutracêutica da cebola, principalmente, às substâncias antioxidantes, como quercetina e tióis. Essas substâncias apresentam efeito na redução de inflamações, alergias e doenças virais e na prevenção de câncer, catarata e doenças cardiovasculares. O cultivar de cebola Bola Precoce, desenvolvido pela Epagri, apresentou teor de quercetina relativamente alto em análise realizada pelo CNPH, Embrapa. A Epagri realizou análises da composição mineral em bulbos de cebola produzidos na Estação Experimental de Ituporanga e por alguns agricultores da região do Alto Vale do Itajaí, SC. Os teores de nutrientes minerais nos bulbos foram superiores aos apresentados na Tabela Brasileira de Composição de Alimentos. Portanto, a qualidade da cebola produzida no alto Vale do Itajaí, em termos minerais, foi satisfatória. Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária e Extensão Rural de Santa Catarina - Epagri2017-10-26info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/rac/article/view/89Agropecuária Catarinense Journal; Vol. 29 No. 1 (2016); 41-44Agropecuária Catarinense; v. 29 n. 1 (2016); 41-442525-60760103-0779reponame:Agropecuária Catarinense (Online)instname:Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária e Extensão Rural de Santa Catarina (Epagri)instacron:EPAGRIporhttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/rac/article/view/89/25Copyright (c) 2016 Revista Agropecuária Catarinenseinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGonçalves, Paulo Antonio de SouzaMenezes Junior, Francisco Olmar Gervini deVieira Neto, João2020-07-06T04:00:55Zoai:ojs.publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br:article/89Revistahttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/RAC/indexPUBhttps://publicacoes.epagri.sc.gov.br/index.php/RAC/oaieditoriarac@epagri.sc.gov.br || lamperuch@epagri.sc.gov.br2525-60760103-0779opendoar:2020-07-06T04:00:55Agropecuária Catarinense (Online) - Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária e Extensão Rural de Santa Catarina (Epagri)false
