Sugarcane juice is liquid extract as a drinking beverage in India, possesses therapeutic value. Stability or shelf life is very less due to spoilage or degradation of sugarcane juice because of presence of simple sugar in sugarcane juice. Microorganisms like bacteria prone to degradation of sugarcane juice. Which convert sucrose into dextran as deteriorating agent. Shelf life or stability can be improved by using natural preservatives also chemical preservatives; having a therapeutic value. In this article improvement of stability of sugarcane juice by using natural preservatives such as lemon extract, ginger extract, also may be moringa extract over the chemical preservatives. Citric acid in lemon extract acts as antimicrobial agent while ascorbic acid in ginger extract both improves stability of sugarcane juice. Stabilization of sugarcane juice improved by using naturally obtained preservatives up to several days with good quality.

Abstrak. Penggunaan antioksidan pada pembuatan protected active dried yeast (PADY) dapat memperpanjang umur simpan ragi kering. Antioksidan yang sering digunakan adalah antioksidan sintesis BHA dan BHT yang diduga bersifat karsinogenik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mencari alternatif antioksidan yang lebih aman. Lima antioksidan yaitu asam sitrat, asam askorbat, tokoferol, natrium eritrobat, dan askorbil palmitat pada rentang konsentrasi 0,025-0,5% diuji pada suspensi ragiuntuk mempelajari efek inhibisi dari antioksidan tersebut. Uji laju produksi CO2 menunjukkan sifat noninhibisi dari asam askorbat, natrium eritorbat, asam sitrat, dan tokoferol, sedangkan sifat inhibisi askorbil palmitat dan BHT perlu diteliti lebih lanjut. Formulasi antioksidan terpilih untuk produksi PADY adalah asam sitrat 0,5%, asam askorbat 0,5%, dan tokoferol 0,5%. Pengeringan ragi dengan spray dryer menghasilkan PADY dengan kadar air sesuai standar. PADY dengan sifat fisik terbaik adalah variasi asam sitrat 0,5% dan asam askorbat 0,5% karena kelarutan dalam air yang baik serta granula yang lebih halus. Stabilitas vitalitas PADY diukur selama 45-50 hari, dan didapatkan PADY dengan antioksidan asam askorbat 0,5% memiliki konstanta laju kematian terendah, yaitu 0,0492/hari, setara dengan umur simpan 20 hari. Dengan demikian, formulasi antioksidan asam askorbat 0,5% berpotensi untuk dikembangkan pada produksi PADY. Kata kunci: antioksidan, ragi kering, stabilitas, vitalitas. Abstract. Variation of Antioxidant in Production of Protected Active Dried Yeast. The use of antioxidants in production of protected active dried yeast (PADY) can increase dried yeast’s shelf life. Usually, the antioxidants used are synthetic antioxidants such as BHA and BHT, which are known to be carcinogenic. Therefore, the aim of this research is to study antioxidant alternative that is safer. Five antioxidants, i.e. citric acid, ascorbic acid, tocopherol, sodium erythorbate, and ascorbyl palmitate in concentration range of 0.025-0.5% were tested on yeast suspension to study its inhibitory effect. CO2 production rate test showed noninhibitory characteristic of ascorbic acid, sodium erythorbate, citric acid, and tocopherol, whereas ascorbyl palmitate and BHT showed inhibitory characteristic. Formulations of antioxidants selected are 0.5% citric acid, 0.5% ascorbic acid, and 0.5% tocopherol. Spray drying of yeast resulted in PADY with moisture content within standard. PADYs with the best physical properties are 0.5% citric acid and 0.5% ascorbic acid variation due to good water solubility and finer granules. Vitality stability of PADY was measured for 45-50 days. PADY with 0.5% ascorbic acid had the lowest death rate constant, i.e. 0.0492/day, which is equivalent to 20-days shelf life. Thus, ascorbic acid antioxidant formulation of 0.5% can be developed in the production of PADY. Keywords: antioxidant, dried yeast, stability, vitality.

Commercially processed sauerkraut, packaged in plastic bags, was evaluated for product stability following storage at 2, 20, 32 C. When stored at 2 C in the presence of benzoic acid and potassium metabisulfite, the product was stable for more than 8 months, whereas at 20 and 32 C the shelf life was reduced to 20 and 13 weeks, respectively. The reductions in shelf life were due to development of excessive discoloration (browning) and objectionable flavor formation. These defects appear to be caused by chemical rather than microbiological actions. In addition to serving as effective anti-microbial agents, the chemical preservatives (presumably sulfur dioxide) showed protective effects in retarding losses of naturally-occurring ascorbic acid found in sauerkraut. Under similar temperatures of storage, fresh sauerkraut containing no chemical additives had shelf life values of 22, 1.5, and 0.75 weeks, respectively. When stored at 32 and 20 C, the major defects (swollen or broken bags) were attributed to the actions of yeasts. Storage at 2 C markedly arrested and reduced viable yeasts counts, thereby extending the shelf life of the bagged product.

An investigation was carried out to extend the shelf life of wood apple beverages by up to 50 days from its natural shelf life of 8–12 h. A wood apple beverage was prepared using freeze-dried wood apple powder. Four samples were developed by pasteurizing the beverage at 85 °C for 10 min and treatment with a combination of 50 ppm and 100 ppm of potassium metabisulphite, citric acid, ascorbic acid, and sodium benzoate. Replications and controls were properly maintained. The total soluble solids (°Brix), pH, titrable acidity, ascorbic acid content, microbial growth and sensory attributes of the prepared juice samples were evaluated at an interval of 10 days over a storage period of 50 days. TSS was found to increase (16.30–18.25°Brix) with storage period, while pH (5.43–4.10), titratable acidity (0.67–0.08%), and ascorbic acid content (4.65–1.01 mg/100 mL) decreased with time (Table A1). The microbiological analysis showed little or no growth for samples treated with a combination of 50 ppm potassium metabisulphite, citric acid, ascorbic acid and sodium benzoate up to 50 days. Consumer acceptability of the beverage was found to be satisfactory. Thus, shelf life of wood apple beverage was extended to 50 days satisfactorily, ensuring consumption-safe parameters and satisfactory sensory qualities.

The effect of different concentrations of citric acid and ascorbic acid (applied individually or in mixture's) on microbial growth in potato homogenate was analyzed and compared to the sodium bisulfite action during storage at 4°C in low gaseous permeability films. These experiments allowed one to simulate the behavior of prepeeled potatoes but with a known amount of added preservative to evaluate additive or synergic effects. Total viable microorganisms, Enterobacteriaceae, Pseudomonas sp., Lactobacillus sp., molds, yeasts, Clostridium sulfite reducers, psychrotropic microorganisms, and aerobic and anaerobic viable spores were analyzed during storage time. Inhibition indexes produced by the tested preservatives were calculated for the different microorganisms. Sodium bisulfite solutions (100 ppm) had no inhibitory effect. Concentrations of 3,500 ppm citric acid and 10,000 ppm ascorbic acid showed antimicrobial action as well as mixtures of citric acid/ascorbic acid of the following compositions (in terms of total acids concentration): 2,700/2,000, 3,500/2,000, and 2,700/3,000 ppm. A higher effect on Enterobacteriaceae was observed in comparison with other microorganisms. The apparent synergic effect of these acids when they were applied together was demonstrated to be actually an additive effect when concentrations of undissociated acid in the mixtures were considered instead of total concentration.

The major challenge influencing fruits economic value is the relatively short shelf-life. This study preserved fruit juice blend from pineapple, watermelon and orange using lime juice as biopreservative comparing its effectiveness with ascorbic acid and citric acid as chemical preservatives during storage at ambient temperature (27±2oC) for five weeks. The acceptability of the juice by consumer, biochemical changes and microbial load was also evaluated on a weekly basis. From the results, all the samples were acceptable on a 9-point hedonic scale (8.70-8.90) with 1% lime biopreserved juice blend was the most preferred. This shows that that lime effectively controlled the rate at which increase pH and decrease of TTA occurred during storage by double-fold when compared with ascorbic and citric acid used in the study. A minimal decrease in pH of 0.75% was documented during the five weeks of study. The specific gravity of the juice was relatively table during storage except for the unpreserved juice. Lime addition at 2 and 4% effectively suppressed fungal growth in the juice for five weeks of storage. Lime juice added as biopreservative at 4% showed the best bacteriostatic and fungistatic performance while the consistent increase in the bacteria growth from 60×102 - 11×1010 CFU/mL was recorded in unpreserved at ambient temperatures during storage. Ascorbic acid and citric acid as preservative effectively inhibited microbial growth of bacterial and fungal for 2 weeks, followed by a steady increase from 16×101 - 17×103 , 20×102 - 62×102 and 20×102 - 36×104 ; 21×102 - 48×102 CFU/mL respectively. Low Bacterial count was recorded in juice preserved with 1% lime (70×101 CFU/mL), 2% lime preserved (41×102 CFU/mL) and 4% lime (13×101 CFU/mL) at week 4 and week 5 respectively. The study established that lime is a good biopreservative with antimicrobial effect can serve as a replacement for chemical preservatives.

ntroduction: ‘Perla’ and ‘Mexicano’ are varieties of tuberose grown in Mexico that have potential for commercialization and export; however, no preservative solutions have been evaluated to increase their shelf life. Objective: To determine physical, physiological, and chemical changes that occur in postharvest tuberose when different preservative solutions are applied. Methodology: Tuberose flower spikes of varieties ‘Mexicano’ and Perla, with two open basal flowers, were placed in preservative solutions (Crystal®, sucrose [Sac] + citric acid [CA] + hydroxyquinoline citrate [HQC] and ascorbic acid [AAsc]). A group of tuberose flower spikes was kept as control, and in all cases destructive and non-destructive variables were evaluated during postharvest. Results: Relative fresh weight and water consumption increased with preservative solutions in both varieties. The appearance of the ‘Perla’ variety was excellent for 5 days with Crystal®. The ‘Mexicano’ variety had more open flowers with Crystal® and Sac + AC + HQC, while the ‘Perla’ variety had the same result with AAsc and Crystal®. Respiration in the Mexicano’ variety was high with Sac + AC + HQC, and in the case of ‘Perla’ variety, respiration was low with AAsc. The highest specific superoxide dismutase activity was detected with AAsc and Crystal® for ‘Perla’ variety. Study limitations: The results are valid without previous applications of pulse or hydrating solutions in tuberose varieties evaluated. Originality: This is the first study where the postharvest behavior of two Mexican tuberose varieties is evaluated in preservative solutions. Conclusions: ‘Mexicano’ and ‘Perla’ varieties can use Crystal® and AAsc solutions to maintain the quality for longer time in vase.
