Abstract

In order to prevent the turbidity during storage of kiwifruit juice, clarification is necessary. Through proper clarification, flavor and taste of the product is also improved. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to present a method to determine the optimum amount of clarifying agents (Pectinase enzyme, Bentonite and polyvinyl poly pyrolidone) for producing kiwifruit juice with stable clarity. For this purpose, effect of Pectinase enzyme (2-8 g/kg), Bentonite (200-350 g/Ton) and polyvinyl poly pyrolidone (70-110 g/100 lit) on viscosity, turbidity, clarity and total phenolics compound of kiwifruit juice was investigated. For each response a second order polynomial model was developed using a multiple linear regression analysis. Results showed that R2 for viscosity, turbidity, clarity and the total amount of phenolics were more than 0.90. The statistical analysis indicates that viscosity, turbidity and clarity (P
