This work aimed to study the influences of physiological characteristics (variety, maturity, and fruit components) and storage conditions on the allergenic potential of kiwifruit. The results found kiwifruit allergen (Act d 2) is only measured in the green kiwifruit rather than golden kiwifruit. The Act d 2 content of seed is 2-fold and 4-fold higher than that of pulp and peel, respectively. The highest Act d 2 allergen content was determined in ripe kiwifruit, followed by overripe fruit and unripe fruit. A 50 % of enhancement in Act d 2 content was observed after 10-day storage at 20 °C. Further, the Act d 2 content showed a negative relationship with the ascorbic acid content and total antioxidant activity at various conditions. Thus, antioxidants as important factors may involve the regulation of Act d 2 in kiwifruit. These findings could provide a deep understanding in the distribution of Act d 2.
