A study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of different level of citric acid and packaging material on physico chemical quality, sensory quality and shelf life of developed papaya fruit bar .The study revealed that the moisture content (19.06% to 16.95% in PET jars – 19.06% to 17.06% in glass jars), TSS (64.17 to 69.30°Brix in PETjars and 64.17 to 69.46°Brix in glass jars), Vitamin- C (55.30 to 45.80 mg/100mg in PET jars and 55.30 to 46.75 mg/100mg in glass jars) and total plate count decreased with increasing the level of citric acid from 0.5 to 1.0% after 90 days of storage in. During storage there was a reduction in moisture content, pH and vitamin-C, where as TSS (total soluble solids), optical density and total plate count increased during storage. No microbial detection in developed fresh fruit bar was found. The organoleptic score of the bar samples in glass jars at 0.75% citric acid level was found to be higher followed by samples packed in PET jars and the developed fruit bar was well acceptable even after 90 days of storage. The result indicated that sugar50+jaggery50 at 0.75 percent citric acid level gave better products after 90 days of storage followed by sugar50+jaggery50 at 0.5 percent and sugar50+jaggery50 at 1.0 percent.

Loloh is a Balinese traditional beverage made from one or a combination of several herbal extracts. The most popular variants of loloh in Bali are loloh tibah and loloh cem-cem, which are continuously produced every day. During distribution, loloh is stored at room temperature. The study was aimed to study the physico-chemical and microbiological characteristics of loloh cem-cem and loloh tibah during storage at room temperature.  This study used a purposive random sampling. The samples consisted of 14 loloh sellers in Badung-Denpasar. Type parameters that were observed during a 24 hour-storage at room temperature included pH, total soluble solid, titratable acidity, ascorbic acid, total plate count, total yeast and mold count. During room temperature storage, the level of total plate count, total mold/yeast of loloh cem-cem and loloh tibah changed significantly. The shelf life of loloh cem-cem was only 12 hours at room temperature (28-30 oC) with the characteristics of pH 2.95, TSS 5.67 °Brix, vitamin C 19.35 mg/100 g, titratable acidity 0.24%, log total plate count 6.48 Cfu/mL, log total mold/yeast 5.01 Cfu/mL. The shelf life of Loloh tibah was only 12 hours at room temperature (28-30 ºC) with the characteristics of pH 3.34, TSS 4.21 °Brix, Vitamin C 10.20 mg/100 g, titratable acidity 0.13%, log total plate count 6.68 Cfu/mL, log total mold/yeast 5.86 Cfu/mL.

Strawberry is a popular and nutritious fruit. However, its improper post-harvest handling leads to quality degradation. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of active paper packaging placements methods on strawberry (<em>Fragaria x ananassa</em>) quality during refrigerated storage. Strawberry quality was determined based on the physical (weight loss, hardness, color), chemical (pH, total titratable acid, total soluble solids and vitamin C content) and microbiological (total plate count) properties. The results of this study indicated that different placement methods of active paper packaging had no significant effect on the physical and chemical qualities; but it did affect the microbiological quality of the strawberries. At the end of the experiment (12 days), the microbial content of C (the bottom and walls), D (covering all surfaces) and E (cut into pieces) samples were significantly lower than the A (without active paper packaging) and B (the bottom) samples. The Total Plate Count (TPC) values of the control and B samples were higher than the maximum acceptable limit of 6 log10 colony-forming units (CFU) g<sup>-1</sup>, while the other samples remained below the limit. These results indicated that a larger surface area of active paper that had contact with the strawberries provided better protection against microbes. Due to their microbial properties, C, D and E treatments maintained the strawberry quality for up to 12 days, compared with 9 days for control and B treatments. Active paper packaging containing oleoresin from solid waste of pressed <em>Curcuma xanthorrhiza</em> Roxb. can be applied to extend the shelf life of strawberries during refrigerated storage.

<p>Peach and passion fruit nectars are well accepted by consumers and promise important sources of bioactive compounds. In this study it was analyzed vitamin C; anthocyanins; pH; total soluble solids; titratable acidity; total carbohydrates and <em>Ratio </em>(<em>Ratio</em> of total solids to citric acid) in different brands of peach and passion fruit nectar and results were compared to the Brazilian Legislation. Values of Vitamin C, anthocyanins, pH, soluble solids, titratable acidity, and total carbohydrates<em> </em>were analyzed. Results showed many variations in acidity, total soluble solids, carbohydrates and <em>Ratio</em> of nectars of the different brands. Peach and passion fruit nectars marketed in Brazil are good alternatives of ingesting vitamin C as all brands have more than 30% of the recommended daily intake, however, most brands possesses values much higher than stated on the labeling. For anthocyanins values, although there are patterns in Brazilian law, it can be seen from the results that there is great variation between the brands and some have very low values, indicating that the incorporation of this parameter on the labeling would be important once more aware and concerned consumers could choose the brand they thought most appropriate for their need. In conclusion it is possible to say the peach and passion fruit nectars marketed in Brazil are good alternatives of ingesting vitamin C as all brands have more than 30% of the recommended daily intake indicating they are considered “rich in vitamin C”. Although, in the other hand, brands of both flavors are found in amounts higher than stated on the labeling. Values of soluble solids, acidity in citric acid and total carbohydrates are according Brazilian Legislation. Values of<em> Ratio </em>indicate that the nectars analyzed are adequate according to acceptability parameters.</p>

Quality asessment of pangasius (Pangasius hypopthalmus) fillets stored in ice has been conducted. Fish were fasted for one day and slaughtered using bleeding techniques, drained for 10 minutes and filleted in various types of fillet: skin on, skinless, trimmed and untrimmed condition. Fillets were then washed and packed in vacuum plastics, stored in ice (0-4 ºC) for 18 days and observed for its sensory, chemical and microbiological parameters every 3 days. The sensory evaluation was conducted both for fresh or cooked fillets using scoring test on attribute of appearance, odor and texture as well as hedonic test. The chemical parameters observed were proximate; pH and Total Volatile Base (TVB); while microbiological parameter was Total Plate Count (TPC). Results showed that type of fillet did not significantly affect the quality of pangasius fillets. The quality of all treated fillet decreased in line with time of storage, all products were rejected after being stored for 18 days. At the time of rejection, the quality parameters: moisture content ranging from 80.1 to 81.3%, TVB from 11.1 to 11.5 mg N/100g and TPC from 1.41 to 4.6x105 CFU/ml. It is suggested to preserve pangasius fillets in ice less than 18 days.
