Fruit juices are regarded as the most preferred non-alcoholic beverage worldwide to all age groups. In general, microbial growth in fruit juice is restricted by using preservatives and also through other environmental factors during production. Still, the presence of some indicator organisms in fruit juice is responsible for causing food-borne diseases and even death. So, from public health poi...

studies have shown that oxygenated compounds and tss are important in food products. it seems that cultivars have a profound influence on these factors. the goal of the present study is to investigate on flavor components and juice quality parameters of two mandarin cultivars. in the last week of january 2012, at least 10 mature fruit were collected and their peel oil was extracted using cold-p...

introduction: citrus fruits, which belong to the family of rutaceae are one of the main fruit tree crops grown throughout the world. although sweet orange (citrus sinensis) is the major fruit in this group accounting for about 70% of citrus output.citrus fruits are well – appreciated fortheir refreshing juice and health benefits.the health benefits of citrus fruits are linked to the high amount...

Poly(ether ether ketone) with cardo group-based (PEEK-WC) membranes, in hollow fber (HF) confguration, were prepared via the dry-wet spinning technique through the phase inversion process and used to clarify kiwifruit juice. The depectinised juice was processed according to a batch concentration confguration in selected operating conditions (transmembrane pressure, 1.6 ...

Processing and storage of apple juice often triggers quality deterioration regarding nutritional valuable compounds and unfavourable color changes resulting from browning. Fluorescence and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy were applied to detect such quality loss in apple juice. Juice samples were produced from Malus x domestica 'Pinova', stored at 20 °C for 4 days or heated at 80 °C for 10 min ...

Aonla (Emblica officinalis Gaertn.) fruits are preserved either in water or salt solution for a couple of weeks for the commercial preparation of products. In the present study, quality of aonla (cv. Chakaiya) juice prepared from fruits steep preserved in water for 30 days was assessed during storage up to 9 months under ambient conditions. The juice was prepared from fruits withdrawn at 0, 5, ...

Ultraviolet (UV-C at 253.7 nm) technology has been the go-to alternative pasteurization and shelf-life extension treatment for beverages for the last two decades. It has been the focal point of non-thermal methods for fruit juice processing and has been studied extensively. UV-C technology has been proven to produce microbiologically safe products with minimal negative impact towards quality of...

Three different apple-carrot juice blends (60:40, 75:25 and 90:10, v/v) were prepared and treated with ultrasound with comparison to the conventional thermal pasteurization. Total aerobic viable count (TAC) were significantly lower in juice blends with lower pH (apple-carrot ratio of 90:10, v/v) than the blends with higher pH after one month storage at 4 ̊C. TAC were similar in ultrasound-treate...

We investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of yogurt supplemented with 1%, 2%, and 3% aronia juice and fermented for 24 h at 37°C. The total acidity increased with increasing levels of aronia juice and incubation time. Lightness and yellowness of the yogurt decreased, but redness increased, with increasing aronia juice content and incubation time. The number of lacti...
