Abstract
ABSTRACTApple pulp and reconstituted grapefruit juice were provided as texturized alginate gels at concentrations of 5–96%, after pH adjustment. The resulting products had appreciable mechanical integrity even at very high pulp or juice concentration. Their texture, judged by compressive strength, strain at failure, and deformability modulus was improved considerably by dipping in calcium lactate solution. The original pH of the fruit could be restored by a dip in a citric acid solution without adverse effects on texture.
