Abstract

The effect of two homeopathic products: Phosphoricum acidum (PA7CH) and Silicea terra (ST13CH) in dynamics of 7CH y 13CH respectively and oligosaccharides from QuitoMax® in concentrations of 1 g L-1 y 2 g L-1 on indicators of tomato fruits quality (pH, antioxidant capacity, soluble solids, soluble total carbohydrates, vitamin C, β-carotene, polyphenols and lignin) was evaluated, using a randomized completely design. The data were statistically analyzed by a variance analysis of simple classification and comparison of means by the Tukey test (p<0,05). The homeopathic products and oligosaccharides from QuitoMax® improved the tomato fruits quality, and the homeopathic product PA7CH highlighted with the best results according to: pH, antioxidant capacity, lignin content and polyphenols. The others indicators were not significantly affected by effect of these active products.
