Abstract. Chutney is a native Indian processed product, made from cuts of fruits or vegetables and nuts cooked in a sweet, sour and spice mixture. The quality requirements of chutney are influenced by the use of raw materials herbs and spices. The purpose of this study was to determine the response of three varieties of mango and its interaction with concentration of apple vinegar towards physicochemical characteristics of mango chutney. The experimental design of this study used a nested design with two factors. The first factor was three varieties of mango consisting of podang mango, gadung, and kweni and the second factor was the concentration of apple vinegar (5%: 10%: 15%).Parameters analyzed were moisture content, ash content, vitamin C, total soluble solids, total titrated acids, pH, crude fiber, antioxidant activity, color intensity, topicality and hedonic test (flavor, aroma, and appearance). The study showed that differences in mango varieties and apple vinegar concentration did not interact with moisture content, ash content, total soluble solids, total titrated acids, vitamin C, crude fiber, antioxidant activity, pH, color intensity, topicality and hedonic test. The differences in mango varieties significantly affected on water content, color intensity (L and a+), topicality, and hedonic test, whereas the difference of apple vinegar concentration had no significant effect on ash content, pH, total soluble solids, total titrated acids, vitamin C, crude fiber, and antioxidant activity. The optimum composition based on De Garmo test chutney made from gadung mango and 5% apple vinegar (G2C1) with moisture content 23,50 %, ash content 3,15 % vitamin C 0,10 %, total titrated acid 0,75 %, crude fiber 7,05 %, total soluble solids 4,60 ºbrix, ph 4,31 %, antioxidant activity 93,67 %, colour intensity: lightness (L) 36,13, redness (a+ ) 4,67 and yellowness ( b+) 10,00, Topicality 10,67 cm, and hedonic test : appearance 2,13 %, aroma 3,30 % and flavor 2,97 %.

The aonla (Emblica officinalis Gaertn.) is commonly referred to as a "Miracle Fruit for the Health", owing to the high nutritious and therapeutic value of its fruits. But the fresh fruits are not ingested freely due to the astringent taste caused by fruit tannins. In production and acreage under aonla cultivation Uttar Pradesh is the leading state in the country. The study aims to understand the storage behaviour of the pickle prepared from the aonla fruit. Pickle was prepared from the eight aonla cultivars viz - Kanchan, Banarasi, Krishna, Chakaiya, NA – 8, NA – 7, NA – 6, and NA – 9. Physicochemical characters (such vitamin 'C' (ascorbic acid), total soluble solids (T.S.S.), browning, and acidity), and sensory/organoleptic scores were recorded at the monthly interval during storage. The result showed that the aonla pickle is acceptable up to nine months thereafter, reduction was noted in the physicochemical and organoleptic scores. Among all cultivars tested, NA-7 was found to be ideal for pickle preparation.

Massive changes in physicochemical composition and color variation usually occur in fruits during maturation and ripening. This study is conducted to implement an image processing system and develop a maturity color chart of banana. Actually, natural ripening color is different than impose ripening. Maturity color chart will help the consumer when it will be in the packet of banana. The earliest physiological maturity (stage-1) was marked as the stage when the flesh color was olive green and the pulp turning yellow and the subsequent maturity stages determined whenever changes the color as stage-2 (green smoke), stage-3 (apple green), stage-4 (olive drab), stage-5 (yellow) and stage-6 (golden rod) color. For each of the maturity stages, physical (peel color, firmness, and weight loss) and biochemical (anthocyanin content, carotenoids content, titrable acidity, pH, total soluble solids, ascorbic acid, reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar, and total sugar) maturity indices were determined. We had classified the maturity stages of banana based on the RGB (Red, Green, and Blue) and HSV (Hue, Saturation and Value) values. Average, median, minimum and maximum values were used in this study. After completing the qualitative analysis of RGB and HSV values we found the correlation coefficient of RGB and HSV values. The red color (R) values of bananas would increase when stages increase and the hue (H) means the pure color of bananas decreases when stages increase. Therefore, we can say that maturity stages of bananas mainly depend on R and H values. In case of Amritsagor banana at stage-6 (golden rod) color, TSS (Total Soluble Solid) (2.1%), TA (Titrable Acidity) (0.96%), pH (5.2), sugar (1.25%), vitamin C (2.5 mg/100g), reducing sugar (1.04%), non-reducing sugar (0.2%), anthocyanin (0.55 mg/100g) carotenoids (0.38 mg/100g) and at stage-1 (olive green) color, pH (6.8), vitamin C (8.75 mg/100g) are significantly highest. The results show that as maturation progressed, firmness decreased gradually and flesh color turned olive green to golden rod with ripening. Total soluble solids increased while TA (Titrable acidity) gradually increased with maturity. The results revealed that, there is a significant relationship between nutritional value, firmness and fruit skin color. So, the fruit of stage-1 (olive green) is suitable for harvesting and stages-6 (golden rod) color is suitable for consumption. Actually this message for grower/ owner or who would like to harvest and consumer. Fruit is banana, to observe the change of color keep it at room temperature. Neither artificial nor chemical system used here. Each and every box will carry the real maturity color chart.J. Bangladesh Agril. Univ. 16(2): 293-302, August 2018

Abstract The experiment was carried out in the Garlica Murowana Experimental Station of University of Agriculture in Krakow, Poland, between 2005 and 2008. Fruit yield, mass of 100 berries, content of total soluble solids, vitamin C, anthocyanins and titratable acidity were estimated. It was shown that ‘Atut’ honeysuckle started vegetation, flowering and cropping periods earlier than ‘Duet’. However, greater marketable yield and mass of 100 berries were obtained for ‘Duet’. ‘Atut’ fruit revealed a significantly higher content of anthocyanins. The studied honeysuckle cultivars did not differ if estimated on the basis of total soluble solids and vitamin C content in the fruit.

Phenolic compounds and anthocyanins content in grape juices varies in the cultivar, ripening and climate characteristics. The objective of this work was to characterize and evaluate antioxidant activity of grape juices produced in southwestern Minas Gerais. Grapes were harvested, sanitized and the juices from cultivars 'Bordô', 'Isabel Precoce', 'BRS Violeta' and 'BRS Rúbea' were produced in artisanal equipment by steam extraction and stored for 120 days. The following analyzes were performed during storage: color (L *), pH, soluble solids, titratable acidity, anthocyanins, antioxidant activity (DPPH and β-caroteno/linoleic acid), total phenolics, vitamin C and organic acids. Among the cultivars evaluated, the consumption of grape juice from cultivar 'BRS Violeta' is suggested due to its higher content of vitamin C, antioxidant activity, total phenolics, anthocyanins, and also due to a better physicochemical characteristic showed, when compared to the juices of the other cultivars.

Fruits of five regional selections of rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum L.) were characterized to identify those with international marketing quality to promote their propagation in Mexico, improvement and conservation in germoplasm bank. The fruits were harvested in June, July, and August 2008 and, after each harvest, were assessed for shape (length/diameter), firmness, fruit weight, number of fruits per kilogram, weight and percentage of pericarp, seed and aril, total soluble solids, total sugars, vitamin C content, pH, and titratable acidity. In addition, a sensorial evaluation was carried out with 31 panelists who graded each selection for color, sweetness, and acidity. Fruits of five selections were ovoid, and with the following characteristics: firmness values from 43.7 to 51.0 N, fruit weight ranged from 22.4 to 34.7 g, registering from 28.9 to 45.0 fruits per kg; pericarp weight from 10.5 to 17.3 g (45.9 to 49.9% of the total fruit weight); total seed weight from 2.2 to 2.5 g (7.0 to 10.0%); average arils weight from 8.9 to 13.1 g (37.5 to 41.4%). The fruits had high contents of total soluble solids (17.8 to 20.4 ºBrix), total sugars (211.95 to 242.70 mg/100g in the edible portion), vitamin C (37.9 to 69.1 mg/100 g), pH 5.0, and titratable acidity of 0.20 to 0.28%. The fruits from the RT-01 and RT-05 selections had better attributes in fruit weight, total soluble solids and titratable acidity and were better accepted by the panelists. Harvest date significantly affects rambutan fruit quality; at the middle and end of the season harvested fruits had better qualitative characteristics for the marketing.
