| 5. Sonicated juice: 100 mL of freshly squeezed juice were sonicated in an ultrasound bath (100 watt power and 30 ± 3 KHz frequency) for 30 min at 50 ± 1 °C, then all batches were cooled to 30 °C and stored at -20 °C. |
| The samples were washed under running water and dried on tissue paper. The edible part was manually separated with a stainless steel knife, crushed in a mixer and filtered manually with a cloth and 100 mesh; 0.15 mm diameter. A juice was obtained and this was used to carry out the analysis of the compounds of interest. |

| Samples from two cultivars (Arkin and Honey sweet) were analyzed and washed with running tap water followed by distilled water. Then they were cut into 0.5 cm pieces to be homogenized. They used three drying methods: by means of an oven, a dehydrator and in the sun. The samples dried in the oven and by means of the dehydrator were kept at 65 °C for 4 h. The sun-dried samples were kept for 2 days. |

| The samples were obtained for uniformity of color and degree of maturity. They were disinfected and manually peeled, after which they were crushed and stored at -80 °C. |

| The sample was baked for 2 weeks until it matured, then the vegetable matter was cleaned and mixed in a fine homogenizer. The fiber and seeds were removed from the juice obtained by means of filtration through a filter cloth. The juice was then freeze dried and refrigerated in a dark bottle. |
