The juice of either sugarcane (CJ) or sweet sorghum (SJ) is used as a raw material for the production of syrup (black honey).So far, no quality standards are reported for sugarcane juice or sweet sorghum as a fresh drink or raw material for the production of syrup. Therefore, this research was designed to study the quality of juice for each of them by replacing the sugarcane juice with sweet sorghum juice in proportions (25, 50 and 75%). The physic-chemical properties represented in TSS, pH, percentage of purity as their highest values in sugarcane juice (A1) and the lowest values for them in sweet sorghum juice (A5), while the highest degree of color unit was recorded in sweet sorghum juice (A5) and the lowest value for color unit in sugarcane juice (A1). Significant differences were found in the physical, chemical and sensory properties as a result of the different treatments with increase of replacement percentage. The reducing sugars, acidity, protein and color values were increased, while the decrement were found in TSS, percentage of purity, total sugars, fats, ash, and minerals (potassiumsodium-calcium-magnesium-iron). Citric acid (B3) treatment resulted in obtaining a light-colored juice with a higher content of reducing sugars compared with the other treatments, and the pre-heating (B2) to 80±0.5°C was improved the sensory properties and general acceptance. It could be concluded that the replacing rate of 25% (A2) with the pre-heating (B2) recorded the best sensory properties and is recommended for the production of canned juice or could be used as a raw material for the production of honey with a subsequent study of its production as a natural energy drink characterized for its long preservation period.
Kishk is a natural functional food as minor constituents that are deficient in milk are supplemented by cereals. It also widely consumed in the diet of many people in the Middle East, especially Upper Egypt.
Agricultural production, especially beet sugar production, is expected to face climate change-induced challenges, which require adaptation using innovative techniques and strategies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
