ABSTRACT: Varietie”Carlota” mango is a native species with great commercial appeal in some regions of Bahia due to its very attractive organoleptic characteristics, with great potential for processing and also as a nutrient source from the peel and pulp to increase a healthier diet. For that matter, this work aimed to carry out biometric and chemical analyzes of the peel and pulp of mango Var. “Carlota”. to obtain information about their agro-industrial, functional, and nutritional characteristics. To carry out the work, physical, chemical (biochemical, mineral) and instrumental color analyzes were performed. According to the results, it can be concluded that: The characteristics of the fruit, such as pulp yield, content of soluble solids and color, distinguish mango Var. “Carlota” with good potential for both fresh fruit consumption and processing. The peel and pulp chemical composition demonstrated the existence of high levels of nutrients and suggest that they can be used to enrich diets, stimulating the development of new products. Vitamin C and total phenolics levels give great functional importance to the fruits, which used frequently can contribute to the reduction and prevention of some diseases. The content for most macronutrients were higher for the peel than for pulp. Peels are normally discarded in nature which consists of a great waste of nutrients due to a lack of use, and an increased level.
