SUMMARY
Tai Chua (Garcinia cowa Roxb.) in the plant family of Clusiaceae was a wealthy medical resource. For the
industrial use in fruit processing, we need to understand the components extracted in Tai Chua and their bio-
activity as well. We found that Tai Chua fruits had 90.28 - 93.43% humidity, 3.05 - 4.36% total acids, 3.03 -
4.34% total orgnanic acids, 0.7 - 0.74% total carbonhydrates, and 57.75 - 64.75 mg/100 g vitamin C. The
extract in ethanol showed the high anti-bactrial effects. Three fruit stages were tested, including the young,
ripen and over-ripen. The ripen fruits had high nutrients, vitamin C, and strong antibactrial activities. So it had
a poten for the production of the foods originated from Tai Chua. The foods would be able to improve
detoxicity, anti-imfamatory, antioxidants, slow aging and immunity.
Keywords: Acorn, antimicrobial activity, biochemical composition, organic acid, vitamin C.
I. INTRODUCTION
Garcinia cowa Roxb., Family Clusiaceae
distributed in India, South Thailand, Vietnam,
Myanmar. In the world, there have been many
published studies on the pharmacological
effects of secondary compounds extracted from
the tree. Garcinia cowa fruit contain high levels
of flavonoids, phloroglucinol and xanthone,
have anticancer activity, antioxidant, anti-
inflammatory, antimicrobial (Hamidi et al.,
2017; Shen et al., 2006). In Vietnam, tilapia can
be as high as 30 m, distributed more in northern
provinces (Lao Cai, Ha Giang, Vinh Phu, Hoa
Binh, Bac Thai, Lang Son), in tropical forests,
200 - 800 m above sea level, average
temperature 22 - 260C, rainfall 1,500 - 2,000
mm. In terms of ecological characteristics,
acacia is preferred for high humidity but water
and weathered soil from sandstone, schist,
granite or limestone. Acorn is usually grown for
fruit picking, timber, greening, anti-erosion.
Among the parts of the acorn, the fruit is rich
in acidity with a sour taste, so it is often used
as an additive in the food additive, besides, the
fruit is also used as Traditional medicine to
detoxify, reduce fever (Sriyatep et al., 2015;
Wahyuni et al., 2017). Garcinia cowa, despite
its many uses, is a valuable source of
medicinal herbs that need to be planted and
harvested in a directed manner. However, in
our country the harvesting and processing of
plant products is only by experience. It has not
been standardized both quantitatively and
qualitatively, so it is difficult to allow the
production of high quality sourced, high quality
yogurt products. Contribute to the creation of
scientific basis for the processing of tangerine
fruits into foods that are nutritious and
detoxifying, increasing immunity and energy for
the body, publishing scientific information. This
study demonstrates some of the biochemical and
biological effects of acorn fruit.

II. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
2.1. Research materials
The fruits of the mature, unprotected trees,
use three types of fruit: (i) fruit buns (large
size, blue shells, firm fruit and blue-white); (ii)
ripened fruits (large size, bright yellow shell
and pulp, firm fruit); (iii) ripe berries (large
size, yellow pods and flesh, soft flesh). Test
organisms include E. coli, Bacillus subtilis
(Gram), Aspergillus niger, Pythium (root rot),
yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
2.2. Research Methods
Determination of amount of water by drying
method: Using heat to evaporate water in the
sample. Weigh the sample before and after
drying, and then calculate the percentage of
water in the sample.
- Analysis of total acid content, total organic
acid content, total sugar content, vitamin C
content by common biochemical methods:
total acidity determined by quantitative method
with an alkaline solution standard; the organic
acid content determined by the method of
heating the sample to be combined with the
quantity by a standard alkaline solution;
Determine total sugar content by DNS method,
use glucose to build up the standard graph;
Determination of vitamin C content by titration
with Iodine 0.001 N solution (Pham Van Cao,
Bui Thi Nhu Thuan, 1991).
- Determination of antimicrobial activity of
the test: Trim the sample of the acorn, soaking
the sample in 85% ethanol solvent for 30 days.
The extract is then filtered and the aqueous
solution is obtained until it is viscous. Highly
diluted with water in a high proportion of 9
parts water is high crude solution.
Determination of activity against five types of
microorganisms tested (Escherichia coli,
Bacillus subtillis, Aspergillus niger, Pythium,
Saccharomyces cerevisiae) by punching and
measuring the diameter of microbial resistance
ring formed around the hole after 72 h Inoculate
microorganisms on the environment and
appropriate temperatures for each type of
microorganism. Data collected were processed
by Microsoft Excel software to calculate mean,
standard deviation. Comparison of data
differences between experimental formulas by
means of statistical analysis of mean
quantities. The mean values were statistically
significant different when p < 0.05 (Chu Van
Man, 2009).
III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
3.1. Results of the determination of amount
of water of Garcinia cowa fruit
The amount of water present in the
tangerine fruit at three stages (ripening,
ripening, ripe), as shown in table 1. The results
show that the average moisture content of the
fruit at the fruit stage 92.56% fresh fruit,
90.28% ripening fruit, 93.43% ripe fruit. The
moisture content valuescorresponding to the
different development periods of Garcinia
cowa fruit were statistically analyzed, and the
results showed that the difference between the
values was statistically significant. Usually, of
the same fruit, the moisture content reflects the
dry matter content in the fruit: the high
moisture content corresponds to the high water
content and the dry matter content (nutrient
content) is low, and vice versa. Applying this
rule in comparison with the dry matter content
of the three fruits, the ripening fruit has the
highest dry matter content, and the ripe fruit
has the lowest dry matter content.

3.2. Analysis of some biochemical
components
In biochemical norms related to the quality of
food (vegetables, fruits), the total acid content of
which contains mainly organic acids and
vitamins plays an important role. The results
showed that the acidity and total organic acids,
total sugar, and vitamin C content of Garcinia
cowa fruit at different stages of development
(Table 2): Total acidity and total organic acids:
Total acids include all organic and inorganic
acids present in the fruit. Normally, in the plant
body, acids usually exist in the form of organic
acids. According to Ritthiwigrom et al. (2013),
acetic acid in the acorn consists mainly of
organic acids such as malic acid, tartaric acid,
acetic acid. Analysis of total acidity and total
organic acids in sour cherries also showed that,
with total acidity as a percentage, when the fruit
reached maturity, fruit and fruit ripening was
high (3.05% to 4.36%), which accounts for the
majority of organic acids (3.03% to 4.34%). In
particular, the total acidity and total organic acids
at the ripening stage reached the highest and the
ripening stage was the lowest. Comparing the
organic acidity of the fruit with other nutrient-
rich fruits, the organic acidity of the high-
yielding of Garcinia cowa fruit is comparable to
that of apricots, plums, oranges. The total sugar
content in the fruit is low, only 0.7% (fruit cake)
to 0.74% (ripe fruit). Thus, the sugar/acid ratio in
the taurine is low, about 1/6, and that makes the
fruit sour. Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic
acid - an organic acid, and in total organic acids
with vitamin C. However, given the particularly
important role of vitamin C in human and animal
health (increasing immune system, anti-aging,
antioxidant), vitamin C content is determined

separately. The results showed that vitamin C
content in the taurine fruit corresponding to
different stages of development is different. The
vitamin C content in ripe fruits is higher than that
of 64.75 mg/100 g, the fruit is 62.41 mg/100 g,
and the fruit is ripe with 57.75 mg/100 g. In
general, the vitamin C content of the fruit is high,
equivalent to high vitamin C fruits such as
grapefruit, orange, lemon, strawberry. The
results of the study are also consistent with the
publication by Sarma et al. (2014) of the vitamin
C content of tilapia.
