Moench) molassesbphysicochemical characterization and in vitro bioavailability of different genotypes.h[electronic resource]  c2023  aThe present study aimed to analyze the physicochemical composition, bioactive compound contents and iron bioavailability (cell culture caco-2) of sweet sorghum molasses of different genotypes and compare them to sugar cane molasses. Sorghum molasses presented proteins (0.28?2.90%), lipids (0.07?0.53%), total dietary fiber (0.00?2.85%), carbohydrates (90.16?93 0.29%), pH (4.67?4.95), acidity (0.3?0.45) and BRIX (38.2?58.5◦). The sorghum molasses contained high ash concentration (3.30?6.86%) and calcium (397?966 mg), compared to sugar cane (1.98% and 70 mg). Sorghum molasses presented higher levels of total phenolic compounds (19.3?48.4 mg GAE/g) compared to sugar cane (8.8 mg GAE/g). Ferritin concentration was higher in two sorghum molasses (6.3?6.8 ng/mg), compared to sugar cane (4.3 ng/mg). Thus, sorghum molasses proved to be a promising source of minerals and bioactive compounds and an excellent food to be used in human nutrition.  aProximate composition  aAdoçante  aMel  aSorgo  aXarope  aComposição próxima  aNatural sweetener  aSorghum honey  aSorghum syrup1 aSILVA, B.
