Influence is investigated of the main components of the newly developed assortments of phytojems - fruit part, vegetable ingredients, fertilizers, sweeteners and organic acids on the sensory evaluation. The main tasks in the development of the phytojams are to preserve the consistencе upon addition of pectin; increasing the nutritional value of the main raw material by introducing dry and thickened plant extracts and lowering the energy value of new assortment products at the expense of reducing the amount of sugars in the recipes or replacing them with fructose. By physicochemical parameters the studied variants differ from the traditionally produced low-caloric jams with the higher content of phenolic compounds. Sensory evaluation was conducted at the ten ball system. Five model variants have been evaluated with a total sugar content of less than 10%. They have better organoleptic qualities, appearance and functionality.

Background: Honey is generally evaluated by physicochemical analysis of its constituents. The manipulation of honey and its possible adulteration is reflected in many of its physicochemical properties. Objective: In this study, samples of Zygophyllum album L honey produced in El-Oued, Algeria, were characterized based on their melissopalynology, physicochemical and antioxidant properties, also polyphenol content. Methods: The physicochemical parameters of honey, such as density, moisture content, pH, free acidity, electrical conductivity (EC), total sugar content, color intensity, water insoluble solids content, hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), ash, specific rotation, were measured. A number of antioxidant tests were performed to determine the antioxidant properties of Zygophyllum album L honey samples. The polyphenol in the Zygophyllum album L honey was measured by spectrometric determination based on folin-ciocalteu’s method. The identification and quantification of phenolic compounds were carried out by RP-HPLC (high-performance liquid chromatography). Results: All honey samples contained monofloral (67.83-91.89%) pollen belonging to Zygophyllum album L. The results of physicochemical parameters of analyzed honeys were: pH 4.33, moisture 17.2%, free acidity 41.96 meq/kg, electrical conductivity 0.408 mS/cm, HMF 11.89 mg/kg, Ash 0.246 (%), specific rotation -8.21. The Zygophyllum album L honey was extra white amber. The total sugar content ranged from 81.5 to 83. Honey samples contain high levels of gallic acid (252.53±15.56 mg/kg honey), chlorogenic acid (124.71±10.09 mg/kg) and low amounts of total polyphenol (467.82±46,98 mg GAE/kg). Conclusion: Physicochemical parameters (total acidity, pH, moisture, dry matter, ash, and qualitative hydroxymethylfurfural) were within the approved limits established by International Honey Commission.

Taro plant contains high enough of carbohydrate, so it can be used as an alternative raw material for producing bioethanol. This study aimed to determine the ratio of hydrochloric acid to taro root starch and hydrolysis time of taro root starch for producing a high sugar content, as well as to determine the bioethanol content produced from the fermentation of taro root starch using baker’s yeast. The results showed that the best ratio of hydrochloric acid 15% to the taro root starch was at 10:1 (v/w), resulted in a total sugar content of 0.651%. The best hydrolysis time of taro root starch was 2.5 hours, resulted in sugar content of 0.653%. The fermentation of sugar resulted in from hydrolysis was carried out at room temperature for 5 days. The ethanol content obtained from the fermentation was 7.716%.

Beer is a very popular beverage which is the result of complex processes. Its quality and parameters are the outcomes of transformation of components from raw material. We tried to find out during our research how the parameters – the total polyphenol content, the colour and the total sugar content – of our self-brewed beers change during the brewing.

Multivariate data treatments were applied to mid and near infrared spectra of glucose, fructose and sucrose solutions in order to specify near infrared frequencies that characterise each carbohydrate. As a first step, the mid and near infrared regions were separately studied by performing Principal Component Analyses. While glucose, fructose and sucrose could be clearly identified on the similarity maps derived from the mid infrared spectra, only the total sugar content of the solutions was observed when using the near infrared region. Characteristic wavelengths of the total sugar content were found at 2118, 2270 and 2324 nm. In a second step, the mid and near infrared regions were jointly studied by a Canonical Correlation Analysis. As the assignments of frequencies are generally well known in the mid infrared region, it should be useful to study the relationships between the two infrared regions. Thus, the canonical patterns obtained from the near infrared spectra revealed wavelengths that characterised each carbohydrate. The OH and CH combination bands were observed at: 2088 and 2332 nm for glucose, 2134 and 2252 nm for fructose, 2058 and 2278 nm for sucrose. Although a precise assignment of the near infrared bands to chemical groups within the molecules was not possible, the present work showed that near infrared spectra of carbohydrates presented specific features.

Coconut water is highly consumed for refreshment due to its nutritional value. However, its nutritional value varies according to the ecotype and stage of maturity of ecotype. In order to identify best ecotypes with high nutritious value, a physico-chemical composition of ten (10) ecotypes was performed at earlier stage of maturity (3 months). The measured parameters were: coconut height, mass of water, total sugar content, soluble sugar content, protein, titratable acidity and pH.  The obtained results showed that all parameters vary from one ecotype to another. All coconut ecotypes contain water slightly acid with a pH value less than 7.  Furthermore, there is no relationship between physical and biochemical parameters. However, within characterized ecotypes, Ecotype_2, appeared to have the best biochemical composition with a significant amount of water. This study provided important informations related to physico-chemical characteristics of coconuts ecotypes found in the coastal zone.

In Vietnam, the giant mottle eel Anguilla marmorata is the most widely distributed species and being exploited for seed in aquaculture as well as for human consumption. This study aims to investigate the basic nutritional components of the fish. The eels were collected from six locations of Thua Thien Hue province, with weights from 5 to 3200 g. In addition, the content of lipid in skin and tissue was also examined. The results show that eel flesh has a relatively high nutritional value. The water, protein, lipid, and total sugar content of the fish meat is 60.4 ± 0.94%, 19.54 ± 4.31%, 18.2 ± 1.02%, and 1.34 ± 0.34 (mg/g), respectively. The nutritional components of the eel have a good correlation with the weight according to the equation: Y = a × ln (W) + b (where W is the weight of eels; Y is the content of nutritional components; a is the correlation coefficient b is a constant) with r > 0.9. The lipid content of the fish skin is higher than that of muscle and meat.
