Use of Sugar Apple, Atemoya and Soursop for Technological
560 USE OF SUGAR APPLE,ORSI, ATEMOY D. C. et al.A AND SOURSOP FOR TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT OF JAMS – CHEMICAL AND SENSORIAL COMPOSITION Aproveitamento tecnológico da fruta do conde, atemóia e graviola para elaboração de geleias – composição química e sensorial Daniela Castilho Orsi1, Vania Silva Carvalho2, Adriana Cândida Faustino Nishi3, Clarissa Damiani2, Eduardo Ramirez Asquieri3 ABSTRACT Sugar apple, atemoya and soursop are tropical fruits very prized for their pleasant, aromatic and distinctive flavor. In this work, the fresh fruits pulps had high nutritional values, since they contain significant levels of carbohydrates. The results for the analysis of chemical composition of the fresh fruits pulps obtained for sugar apple, atemoya and soursop were respectively: moisture (79.65, 77.06 and 85.30 g.100 g-1), carbohydrates (20.52, 22.01 and 13.83 g.100 g-1), total sugars (19.57, 21.93 and 10.12 g.100 g-1) and soluble solids (22.00, 25.10 and 12.83 °Brix). With the aim of processing the pulps of ripe fruits to add value to these fruits, jams have been developed. The results for the chemical composition analysis of sugar apple, atemoya and soursop jams were respectively: moisture (26.23, 27.94 and 21.52 g.100 g-1), carbohydrates (73.05, 71.44 and 77.83 g.100 g-1), pH (3.41, 3.34 and 3.41) and soluble solids (63.00, 65.00 and 68.60 °Brix). The jams were subjected to Quantitative Descriptive Analysis. A total of 12 trained panelists evaluated the attributes flavor, consistency, appearance and overall acceptability of the jams on a 9-point hedonic scale. -

Ayona Jayadev Analyses were carried out in the laboratory of Department of Environmental Sciences of the institution All Saints' College, and the following results were observed. The total phenol content in Annona muricata is 2.646 mg/g, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India Annona reticulate is 1.932 mg/g and Annona squamosa is 2.304 mg/g. The total tannin content in Annona muricata is 0.659 mg/g, Annona reticulate is 0.032 mg/g and Annona squamosa is 1.646 mg/g. Annona muricata had the maximum phenol content whereas the tannin content was of lower level. Annona squamosa had both phenol and tannin content at a higher level. Keywords: Annona reticulate, Annona squamosa, Annona muricata, Antioxidant, Phenol, Tannin 1. Introduction Annona fruits are one of the world's best tasting fruits, due to the sweet, creamy, flesh and fragrant flavor when fully ripe. -

Due to its abundant nutrient content and perceived health benefits, it is a popular food for consumption and is utilized as a medicinal aid. Although some published research had provided the phenolic compound of custard apple, the comprehensive phenolic profiling of Australian grown custard apple is limited.

Division of Fruit Crops, Indian Institute of Horticultural Science, Hesaraghatta lake Post, Bengaluru-89 *Corresponding Author E-mail: [email protected] Received: 19.03.2017 | Revised: 30.03.2017 | Accepted: 2.04.2017 ABSTRACT The Annonaceae family comprises about 120 genera and more than 2000 species. The genus Annona is the most economically important one, containing 120 species. The opportunity for breeding improvement in the annona is significant and challenging. There is a lot more species are available but certain inherent constraints are involved like: long juvenility, higher levels of heterozygosity and large area requirement for assessment of hybrids. On the other hand, wide range of diversity and ease of vegetative hybrid propagation are the advantages for the breeders. There are very few man made commercially important hybrids. Its development is mostly based on the selection of clones were made for fruit quality only. Requirements of a good cultivar involve: dwarfness, precocity and profuse bearing, attractive, good sized and quality fruit, absence of physiological disorders, disease and pest resistance and improved shelf life etc. Comprehensive knowledge about the phenology and advanced techniques for hybridization have been quite helpful to overcome the problems like poor eating and keeping quality.
