Physico-Chemical Evaluation of Four Different Apple Juice Samples and Comparison in Their Nutritional Values
Keywords:
Apple Fruit juice, Physico-chemical analysis, Nutritional value, Mineral contents.Abstract
Fruits and vegetables play an important role in maintaining good health. Apple fruit juices are commonly consumed for their refreshing attribute, nutritive values. Fruit juice contain several important therapeutic properties that may reduce the risk of various diseases and health benefits. Present research work leads to analysis of various physico-chemical parameters, minerals of apple fruit juice samples. We have compare result obtained in work with different juice sample.
We found results various parameters such as pH in the range of 2.99 – 3.52, conductivity 0.657-2.303 MS/cm, density 1.030 – 1.061 g/ml, TSS was in the range of 11 - 12%, titrable acidity 0.1 g/100ml – 0.24 g/100ml, % water contents 81.48 - 87.38%, carbohydrate 13.4 – 16.55 g/100ml, vitamin C 0.82 – 0.93%. Sodium was found in the range of 23 – 37.9 mg/100 ml, potassium 2.33 – 5.02 mg/100 ml and iron was found 0.054 - 0.144 mg/ 100 ml of sample. Calcium and magnesium were calculated together and it was found 19.84 – 23.84 mg/100ml of sample.
