Abstract
DUQUE, ALBA LUCIA; GIRALDO, GERMÁN ANTONIO and CORTES, MISAEL. PULP UCHUVA FORTIFICATION WITH CALCIUM, OLIGOFRUCTOSE AND VITAMIN C STABILIZED WITH HYDROCOLLOID. Rev.Bio.Agro [online]. 2014, vol.12, n.1, pp.124-133. ISSN 1692-3561.
Cape gooseberry fortified pulp with calcium, vitamin C and oligofructose is a functional food that provides great health benefits. For that, in the cape gooseberry pulp were added biologically active components such as minerals, vitamins, fatty acids, fiber and antioxidants. In this paper it studies the stability of the enriched pulp in various formulations, taking into account the criteria for incorporation of calcium and vitamin C (20% of the recommended daily value VDR) and for oligofructose (dietary fiber) in a 1:1 ratio with calcium. The results showed that the cape gooseberry pulp fortified with CMC, oligofructose, calcium and vitamin C, presented an average stability of 87,7±10,0; a viscosity of 22,8±7,9; a aw of 0,9863±0; pH 3,3±0,1; acid 1,6±0,1, grades brix was 13,3±0,7, a density of 1,32±0,0 g/mL and the best sensory responses regarding color, aroma, and flavor flow.
