Studies On The Physico-Chemical And Sensory Properties Of Juices Produced From Noni (Morinda Citrifolia) And Pineapple (Ananas Comosus) Blend
ABSTRACT
Fresh Noni juice and Pineapple juicy were extracted,
processed and blended at different proportions to formulate new products of
Noni juice-Pineapple Juice (NPJ). The samples were blended at varying
proportions: 100:0 (Noni juice: pineapple juice) (control), 90:10 (Noni juice:
pineapple juice), 80:20 (Noni juice: pieapp1e juice), 70:30 (Noni juice:
pineapple juice) and 60:40 (Noni juice: pineapple juice) without addition of
spices and chemical preservatives. The samples were evaluated for their
chemical, vitamin and mineral compositions, physicochemical properties and
organoleptic attributes. Moisture was the main component of the juices (80.61
to 86.23%). The juices had adequate amounts of minerals and vitamins including
vitamin C which ranged from 75.09 to 83.33mg/bOg. 'Flie pH of the juices ranged
from 4.13 to 5.60, total titratable acidity ranged from 0.96 to 1 .96% while
specific gravity ranged from 1.091 to 1.160. In terms of sensory attributes,
60:40 (Noni juice: pineapple juice) received the highest scores and was most
preferred to other juices It was concluded that blending Noni juice with
Pineapple juice resulted to juice with reduced nutrient composition. However,
the juices would meet the Recommended Daily Intakes of vitamins and minerals
analyzed in this study.
