<div style="text-align: justify;">The purpose of this research is to analyze the impact of water spinach leaves heating (Ipomoea aquatica Forsk) at 100oC by different time duration on its antioxidant activity. The method was experimental method involved several steps, such as sample preparation, extraction process, and evaluation of antioxidant activity with UV-Visible Spectrophotometer. The result of this research shown that IC50 value from K1, K2, K3 to K4 were 25.25 μg/mL (very high), 96.75 μg/mL (high), 181.47μg/L (low, and 280μg/mL (very low). The IC50 value of K1 to K2 decreased 71.49 μg/L, The K2 to K3 decreased 84.72 μg/L, K3 to K4 decreased 98.53 μg/L. By this result, it was predicted that the antioxidant of water spinach will diminish, or even it will be lowered when it is steamed more than 15 minutes in 100 C. ©2016 JNSMR UIN Walisongo.

Pomegranate juice is popular due to its unique health benefits, sensory characteristics and also a good source of bioactive compounds. Comparative study on processing effect of Not from Concentrate (NFC) and Reconstituted from concentrate (RFC) pomegranate juice on the nutritional and sensory characteristics of ‘Ganesh’ variant was conducted. Results showed that not much differences observed in parameters like pH, acidity, essential elements, protein, total sugars and polyphenol content between NFC and RFC. As per the study NFC had a better antioxidant activity with intracellular ROS inhibition of 11% higher with significant ( p < 0.05) than RFC in HepG2 cell lines. Total anthocyanin content was significantly different ( p < 0.05) in NFC (428.05 mg/l) compared to 326.74 mg/l in RFC expressed as cyanidin-3-glucoside. Iron uptake was 40 units (µg/mg protein) higher in NFC than RFC ( p < 0.05) in HepG2 cells. Sensory flavor profile showed NFC having significant differences with respect to characteristic pomegranate freshness, fruitiness, sweetness and astringency mouthfeel. RFC had higher sweetish and cooked flavor with additional vegetable like notes of beet and carrot. Based on the data better antioxidant activity, iron bioavailability, anthocyanin content and sensory attributes were captured in pomegranate NFC juices over RFC juices.
