Banana [Musa Paradiciaca] is one of the most abundant India grown in different states of India. Apart from fruit a huge quantity of waste is obtained from which Pseudostem contributes the absolute waste in most of the states of India. Researchers claimed that pseudostem core used for treatment of urological afflictions like urolithiasis. By utilizing pseudostem juice with papaya pulp an healthy and therapeutic Ready-To-Serve beverage is developed with different proportions of pseudostem juice and papaya pulp C [0:100], V1 [50:50],V2 [75:25] and V3 [85:15].The best blend selected by using 9 point hedonic scale i.e. V1 [50:50]. RTS is prepared as per FPO specifications. The quality characteristics of selected RTS [V1] were compared with control papaya RTS [C]. Raw materials i.e. Banana pseudostem juice and Papaya juice was analyzed for some of its physicochemical parameters. Storage studies was carried out upto 90 days for various physicochemical parameters including Moisture content, Ash content, pH, Acidity, Total Soluble Solids [TSS], Turbidity, Brix Acid Ratio with Color and Viscosity measurement.
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.
