Abstract

SummaryEffect of thermosonication on carrot juice containing peel (CJPL) and pulp (CJPP) extracts from orange at different concentration (0.5, 2.0 and 4.0 mg GAE per g extracts) of total phenolic contents (TPC) was evaluated for quality attributes. Thermosonication of juice was done at 52 °C, 6 min for CJPL and 60 °C, 5 min for CJPP (values based on our preliminary optimisation results of ultrasound process conditions of the juice) at 40 kHz and 110W. Effect of thermosonication and addition of peel and pulp extracts at highest concentration increased the TPC and antioxidant activity of the juice (P < 0.05). Highest inactivation of microorganisms and better sensory attributes was achieved in thermosonicated CJPP for 21 days. Titratable acidity, pH, browning index and viscosity were improved by thermosonication and at highest extract concentration. °Brix and total carotenoid were not significantly affected by treatments. Therefore, thermosonication at 60 °C and 4.0 mg GAE per g extract concentration of peel and pulp may be used in formulation of functional carrot juice with improved health properties.
