All drying processes increased oil content, antioxidant activity, total phenolic contents, and most of the phenolic compounds in the pulp, peel and seeds of both ripe fruits with varied degrees (p < 0.05). In addition, the processes reduced the oil contents, linoleic acids, 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, (+)-catechin, and naringenin of the pulp, antioxidant activity of the peels and seeds, and 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, (+)-catechin of the seeds and it enhanced all other parameters in the pulp, peel, and seeds of unripe fruits (p < 0.05). Comparing the phenolic profiles of avocado pulp, peels, and seeds of ripe and unripe fruits indicated that the peel and seeds are richer than the pulp and that is superior in unripe fruits than ripe ones. In addition, drying processes particularly microwave and air drying greatly enhanced the bioactive properties of ripe and unripe avocado fruits and could thus be used to elongate the shelf-life of avocado fruit products without major impact on the overall quality.
