Résumé
Phytonutrients in peach fruits have health-promoting antioxidants against various chronic diseases. However, there is no extensive data to show the nutritional values of Local peach cultivars after post-harvest treatments. Mainly this study was objective to determine the effect of calcium carbide on nutritional value and quality of fruits of Pakistani peach cultivars. The peach fruits were collected from three different peach orchids of KPK and the fruits were divided into 4 groups while 5th group was collected from a local fruit shop. Each experimental group was treated with different concentrations of calcium carbide whereas control group was not treated. The peel and pulp samples were oven dried and ground to fine powder separately. The elemental compositions were determined using Particle Induced X-ray emission and Pelletron Tandem Accelerator. Sixteen elements were identified in peach fruits and the elements were Al, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, and Se. In peel, the concentration of some elements increased or decreased after treatment with CaC Conclusively, the artificial ripening with CaC

BACKGROUND
Phytonutrients in peach fruits have health-promoting antioxidants against various chronic diseases. However, there is no extensive data to show the nutritional values of Local peach cultivars after post-harvest treatments.
OBJECTIVE
Mainly this study was objective to determine the effect of calcium carbide on nutritional value and quality of fruits of Pakistani peach cultivars.
METHODS
The peach fruits were collected from three different peach orchids of KPK and the fruits were divided into 4 groups while 5th group was collected from a local fruit shop. Each experimental group was treated with different concentrations of calcium carbide whereas control group was not treated. The peel and pulp samples were oven dried and ground to fine powder separately. The elemental compositions were determined using Particle Induced X-ray emission and Pelletron Tandem Accelerator.
RESULTS
Sixteen elements were identified in peach fruits and the elements were Al, P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, and Se. In peel, the concentration of some elements increased or decreased after treatment with CaC
CONCLUSION
Conclusively, the artificial ripening with CaC
