To learn how to regulate carotenoid content in citrus fruit, we studied the mechanism of carotenoid accumulation using physiological and genetic methods. Based on differences in the carotenoid profiles of flavedo and juice sacs, citrus species could be roughly divided into three groups: carotenoidpoor, violaxanthin-abundant, and b-cryptoxanthin-abundant groups. A comparison of the gene expressi...

Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O) were used to determine the aromatic composition and aroma active compounds of fruit juice and peel oil of Jinchen sweet orange fruit. Totals of 49 and 32 compounds were identified in fruit juice and peel oil, respectively. GC-O was performed to study the aromatic profile of Jinchen fruit juice and peel oil. ...

BACKGROUND Diabetes mellitus has become a worldwide health problem. Whether fruit juice is beneficial in glycemic control is still inconclusive. This study aimed to synthesize evidence from randomized controlled trials on fruit juice in relationship to glucose control and insulin sensitivity. METHODS A strategic literature search of PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library (updated to March, ...

Visible light imaging of citrus fruit from Mie Prefecture of Japan was performed to determine whether an algorithm could be developed to predict the sugar content. This nondestructive classification showed that the accurate segmentation of different images can be realized by a correlation analysis based on the threshold value of the coefficient of determination. There is an obvious correlation ...

The present study was conducted to develop functional fibre enriched spent hen meat nuggets (SMN) with incorporation of amla fruit juice powder. Four different products with amla fruit juice powder with the replacement of lean meat viz. 0% (Control), 0.5% (T1), 1.0% (T2) and 1.5% (T3) were prepared and optimum level of amla fruit juice powder was selected on the basis of physico-chemical, proxi...

The abundance of fresh drinks based on fruit juices, especially citrus juices, and minimally processed products allow consumers to ingest a wide variety of antioxidants in the diet, such as vitamin C, carotenoids, flavonoids and other phenolic compounds. Pulsed electric fields (PEF) and high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) are emerging technologies in the field of food preservation. They have the po...

More than 90% of oranges in Florida are processed, and since Huanglongbing (HLB) disease has been rumored to affect fruit flavor, chemical and physical analyses were conducted on fruit and juice from healthy (Las -) and diseased (Las +) trees on three juice processing varieties over two seasons, and in some cases several harvests. Fruit, both asymptomatic and symptomatic for the disease, were u...
