Abstract
Omani fruits were analyzed for their reducing sugar, total sugar contents and some minerals. Among the minerals studied were Ca, Mg, Na, K and P. The amounts of total sugar and reducing sugar were within the range of values reported in the literature for the analysis of fruits conducted elsewhere. The amounts of the minerals differ from the reported literature values. This may be attributed to soil composition, climate and type of cultivar.
