Comparison and storage study of ultra-filtered clarified jamun (Syzygium cumini) juice.

ABSTRACT: Ultrafiltration is one of the types of clarification process that was undertaken in this study together with examining and comparing the storage period of clarified juice by other methods (enzymatically treated, centrifugation, microfiltration). Centrifugation, ultrafiltration and microfiltration of jamun juice was carried out using a laboratory scale refrigerated centrifuge and filtration system. The juices obtained from various processes were evaluated on the basis of their physiochemical and microbial aspects over a period of 8 weeks. Enzyme treated and centrifuged juices were found to be degraded within 15-30 days while other juices had lesser changes in their properties. However microfiltered juice contained some yeasts and molds which increased with time. Ultrafiltration with 50 kDa pore size and 20 psi pressure was found to be the best method for clarification of jamun juice having a prolong shelf life with optimum qualities.

Project description:AbstractFruit phenolics are important dietary antioxidant and antidiabetic constituents. The fruit parts (pulp, seed, seed coat, kernel) of underutilized indigenous six black jamun landraces (Syzygium cumini L.), found in Gir forest region of India and differed in their fruit size, shape and weight, are evaluated and correlated with antidiabetic, DPPH radical scavenging and phenolic constituents. The α-amylase inhibitors propose an efficient antidiabetic strategy and the levels of postprandial hyperglycemia were lowered by restraining starch breakdown. The sequential solvent systems with ascending polarity-petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, methanol and water were performed for soxhlet extraction by hot percolation method and extractive yield was found maximum with methanolic fruit part extracts of six landraces. The methanolic extracts of fruit parts also evidenced higher antidiabetic activity and hence utilized for further characterization. Among the six landraces, pulp and kernel of BJLR-6 (very small, oblong fruits) evidenced maximum 53.8 and 98.2% inhibition of α-amylase activity, respectively. The seed attained inhibitory activity mostly contributed by the kernel fraction. The inhibition of DPPH radical scavenging activity was positively correlated with phenol constituents. An HPLC-PDA technique was used to quantify the seven individual phenolics. The seed and kernel of BJLR-6 exhibited higher individual phenolics-gallic, catechin, ellagic, ferulic acids and quercetin, whereas pulp evidenced higher with gallic acid and catechin as α-amylase inhibitors. The IC50 value indicates concentration of fruit extracts exhibiting ≥50% inhibition on porcine pancreatic α-amylase (PPA) activity. The kernel fraction of BJLR6 evidenced lowest (8.3 µg ml-1) IC50 value followed by seed (12.9 µg ml-1), seed coat (50.8 µg ml-1) and pulp (270 µg ml-1). The seed and kernel of BJLR-6 inhibited PPA at much lower concentrations than standard acarbose (24.7 µg ml-1) considering good candidates for antidiabetic herbal formulations.Graphical abstract

Project description:The emergence of bacterial strains resistant to different antibiotics has prompted the search for new sources of antimicrobial compounds. Studies have shown that jambolan [Syzygium cumini (L.) Skeels], a tropical fruit from the Mirtaceae family, contains a great variety of phytochemical compounds with high antioxidant and antimicrobial activity. This study aimed to determine the centesimal composition and physicochemical characteristics of the pulp and seed of S. cumini (L.) Skeels, as well as the content of total phenolic compounds and the antioxidant, antibacterial, antibiofilm and anti-quorum sensing (QS) activities of the phenolic extracts obtained from the pulp and the seeds of this fruit. The in vitro antibacterial and anti-QS activities of active films incorporating phenolic extracts were also evaluated. Additionally, we performed molecular docking of phenolic compounds present in jambolan with the CviR QS regulator of Chromobacterium violaceum. The composition and physicochemical characteristics of the samples presented similar values to those found for the species. However, the seed phenolic extract had a higher content of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity than the pulp. Both phenolic extracts presented antibacterial activity against Aeromonas hydrophila, C. violaceum, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, Serratia marcescens, Listeria monocytogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus. The seed phenolic extract was particularly inhibitory against S. aureus. The pulp phenolic extract inhibited swarming motility and biofilm formation of A. hydrophila, E. coli, and S. marcescens in sub-MIC concentrations. The pulp and seed phenolic extracts inhibited violacein production in C. violaceum. Films incorporating both phenolic extracts inhibited the growth of bacteria, particularly Pseudomonas fluorescens, L. monocytogenes, and S. aureus, as well as QS in C. violaceum. Molecular docking showed that a variety of compounds found in pulp and seed extracts of jambolan, particularly chlorogenic acid and dihydroquercetin, potentially bind CviR protein and may interfere with QS. Our results indicate that pulp and seed of jambolan are good sources of antibacterial, antibiofilm, and anti-QS compounds that can be used in the development of natural preservatives and for application in antibacterial active films.
