The current study focuses on evaluating the enzyme inhibition (acetylcholinesterase, α-amylase, α-glucosidase, pancreatin lipase), antioxidant, and antimicrobial activities of "Modesto" apricot, "Stanley" plum, their hybrid "Stendesto" plum-apricot. is only successful plum-apricot in Bulgaria. A spectrophotometric approach was used to evaluate antioxidant activity following four complementary assays (DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, CUPRAC). revealed its enhanced potential compared parental lines. Apart from free phenolics extraction, two other techniques (alkaline acid hydrolysis) were applied reveal biological studied fruit. Not but also bound phenolic extracts able inhibit α-glucosidase acetylcholinesterase, while none inhibited lipase or α-amylase. None apricot had activity, fruit limited activity. proposed results undoubtedly that fruits possess parents. This a first comprehensive evaluation with reference makes them an interesting research topic should be better explored.
