There have been very limited reports on the effects of commercial fruit juices on human CYP3A activity. Therefore, the inhibitory effects of readily available commercial fruit juices on midazolam 1'-hydroxylase activity, a marker of CYP3A, were evaluated in pooled human liver microsomes. The fruit juices investigated were black raspberry, black mulberry, plum, and wild grape. White grapefruit, ...

The present experiment was carried on five superior cultivars of litchi fruit in the Department Horticulture Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat, during 2020-2021. All biochemical parameters studied under this were found to be significant character. Generally, most parameters, cultivar Bilati recorded highest among all, such as juice content (13.62cc), reducing sugar (8.37%), invert (17.44%),...

Hemodialysis patients face an elevated risk of cancer, arteriosclerosis, and other diseases, ascribed in part to increased oxidative stress. Red fruit juice with high anthocyanin/polyphenol content had been shown to reduce oxidative damage in healthy probands. To test its preventive potential in hemodialysis patients, 21 subjects in a pilot intervention study consumed 200 mL/day of red fruit ju...

Preliminary work was executed at the processing laboratory of ICAR (Research complex) for NEH Region, Arunachal Pradesh Centre, Basar, to prepare and assess physico-chemical properties fresh juice blends. The experiment comprised nine treatments consisting pineapple, passion fruit ginger blends in different ratios following CRD with three replications. It found that treatment (T5) fruit-ginger ...

This work addresses the physicochemical, enzymatic and sensory changes in cloudy apple juice treated by ultra-high pressure homogenization (UHPH) short-wave ultraviolet radiation (UV–C) applied at 20 °C. Those technologies were single combined treatments different UHPH pressures (200–300 MPa) UV-C doses (14.3–27.8 J/mL). could not effectively inactivate enzymes, but 300-MPa reduced pectin methy...

The effects of edible coatings based on gum arabic (GA) (0.5–1.5%), maize starch (MS) lemongrass oil (LO) (2–4%), and glycerol (GC) (0.5–1%) developed using response surface methodology (RSM) “Wonderful” pomegranate fruit were studied. After 42 days storage (5 ± 1 °C, 95 2% RH) 5 at ambient temperature (20 0.2 °C 60 10% RH), whole evaluated for weight loss (%) juice (PJ) total soluble solids (°...

The prevention of spoilage by Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris is a current challenge for fruit juice and beverage industries worldwide due to the bacterium's acidothermophilic growth capability, heat resistance, and spoilage potential. This study examined the effect of storage temperature on A. acidoterrestris growth in hot-filled orange juice. The evolution of the A. acidoterrestris populatio...

BACKGROUND AND AIM Recently, considerable attention has been given to beverage intake as a source of calories which may be linked to pediatric obesity. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the beverage intake in school children and adolescents aged 7 to 15 years old. METHODS Six hundred and seven (607) out of 655 children participated in the study. One hundred percent fruit juice were cla...

The influence of four day/night growing temperature combinations (18/12, 25/12, 25/22, 30/22 C) on phenolic acid, flavonol, and anthocyanin content and their antioxidant activities against peroxyl radicals (ROO ), superoxide radicals (O2 ), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), hydroxyl radicals (OH ), and singlet oxygen (O2,) in fruit juice of ‘Earliglow’ and ‘Kent’ strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) ...
