Abstract: In Côte d'Ivoire, new varieties cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) are produced and consumed by populations. The aim of this research work was to study the anti-nutritional and antioxidant properties, organic acids of seven varieties cassava (Agbablé 3, Bondoukou 4, Bonoua 2, Boufouh 3, Boufouh 4, Soclopouopo 3 and Totoba 2) to better value them. Thus, phytate contents varied from 50.34±0.03 (Bondoukou 4) to 60.36±0.04 mg/100g (Soclopouopo 3), those of tannins contents from 0.046±0.014 (Agbablé 3) to 0.054 ± 0.014 (Bondoukou 4). The flavonoid contents range from 0.62 ± 0.02 (Agbablé 3) to 3.01 ± 0.01 mg / 100 g (Bonfouh 3). Total polyphenols ranged from 51.24±1.79 (Totoba 2) to 81.12±1.97 mg/100 g (Bondoukou 4). Oxalates contents varied from 5.1±1 (Agbablé 3) to 5.6±1.5 (Bondoukou 4). Anti-oxidant power varied from 0.06 (Agbable 3, Bondoukou 4, Bonfouh 3) to 0.08 (Boufouh 4). Most abundant organic acids are carboxylic acids ranging from 122.5±2.04 (Boufouh 3) to 147.65±0.61 μg/100g (Bonoua 2) and benzoic acids from 80.11±0.17 (Boufouh 3) at 126.15±0.98 (Bondoukou 4). Agbablé 3 variety has low contents of tannins, flavonoids, total phenolols and oxidizing power. Bondoukou 4 and Bonoua 2 varieties respectively had low contents of phytates and total polyphenols.
