Carotenoids | LPe | LPu | SDR | SDS | Significance |
β - carotenoid | 19.11 ± 0.01c | ND | 39.66 ± 0.14d | 8.15 ± 0.04b | P < 0.001 |
Lutein | 77.67 ± 0.05b | 90.63 ± 0.05c | 113.29 ± 0.04d | 3.29 ± 0.02a | P < 0.001 |

Note: All the values are mean ± SEM. Mean values with the same superscript letters in the given row are not significantly different whereas those with different superscript letters are significantly (P < 0.001) different as judged by Duncan’s multiple range test. LPe—lyophilized peel; LPu—lyophilized pulp; ND—not detected; SDR—sundried rind; and SDS—sundried seed.
