Abstract: | Polyphenol Oxidase (PPO) mediated browning in raw fruits and vegetables is a major cause of quality deterioration in fruits and vegetables and derived food products. Here the rate of browning reaction in apple juice treated individually and in combination (1:1) of beta-Cyclodextrin (beta-CD) and L-Ascorbate-2-triphosphate (L-AATP) is described. It was observed that the rate of quinone formation can be minimized using a combination of beta-CD and L-AATP as compared to individual treatment with these agents. Kinetic experiments revealed that both compounds are non-competitive inhibitors of PPO. |
