Studies in preparation of banana wine (fruit wine)

Banana is a tropical fruit, which is grown abundantly in India. It is mainly composed of soluble sugars, starch and other polysaccharides. The juice was extracted from the normal ripe fruits with the help of pectinase enzyme. Optimization of pectinase treatment was done by RSM method. Wine was prepared by using two strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae NCIM 3283 & NCIM 3046. The size of inoculum, effective pH, temperature, level of SO2 , level of DAP for both strains was optimized. It was found that NCIM 3046 gave better results compared to the other strain. Soluble solids (SS), pH and specific gravity decreased while titratable acidity (TA) increased with increasing length of fermentation of the juice. Sensory evaluation results showed that banana wine was acceptable in terms of flavor, taste, clarity and overall characteristics. The banana wine was generally accepted & could be popularized.

Determination of phytochemical contains of Prunus cerasifera cv. “Pissardi Nigra”

Kiraz veya süs erik olarak da bilinen Prunus cerasifera cv. “Pissardi Nigra, karışık ve dikenli dallara sahip küçük bir çalımsı ağaç yapısına sahiptir ve erik gibi yenilebilir meyveleri vardır. Bu çalışmada, Elazığ ilinde farklı lokalitelerden toplanan Prunus cerasifera cv. “Pissardi Nigra” örneklerinin fitokimyasal içeriği (flavanoid, resveratrol, fitosterol ve şeker), yağ asidi, element içeriği ile protein düzeyi araştırılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda meyvelerde yüksek miktarda morin, sonra rutin, resveratrol ve naringin tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca örneklerde fitosterol olarak ergosterol, stigmasterol ve ß-sitosterol belirlenmiştir. Meyvelerin düşük oranda şeker içerdiği ve tüm örneklerde palmitik, linoleik ve lignoserik asit tespit edilmiştir. Meyvelerde en yüksek protein miktarının 1.45 mg/g ve Ca düzeyinin ise 88 ppm olduğu saptanmıştır.Prunus cerasifera known as cherry or ornamental plum, is a small shrubby tree with intricate and occasionally spiny branches, which produces plum-like edible fruits. In this study, phytochemical content ( flavonoid, resveratrol, phytosterol and sugar), fatty acid, elements amounts and protein levels of samples of Prunus cerasifera cv. “Pissardi Nigra” which were collected from different localities in the province of Elazig are researched. As a result, high amount of morin in the examples, then routine, resveratrol and naringin were determined. Additionally, ergosterol, stigmasterol and ß -sitosterol as phytosterols in samples were identified. The fruits were found to contain low levels of sugar. In all the examples palmitic, linoleic and lignoceric acid was detected. . Protein amounts in the samples were measured the highest as 1.45 mg/g, and also Ca was the highest detected element (88 ppm)
