AI Article Synopsis
- Moringa and strawberries are nutritious fruits with health benefits, playing roles in treating diabetes and cancer due to their rich content of vitamins and antioxidants.
- The study aims to create a highly acceptable ready-to-serve juice blend using different proportions of Moringa and strawberry juice to overcome Moringa's bitter taste and green color.
- Results showed that a blend of 90% strawberry juice and 10% Moringa extract had the best flavor, color, and taste, and is particularly beneficial for children with malnutrition and women due to its high nutritional value.
Article Abstract
and strawberry are cultivated extensively worldwide and are divinely blessed with an enormous amount of nutritional and medicinal constituents, such as vitamin C, vitamin E, iron, potassium, and phenolic antioxidants that play a pivotal role in treating, confining, and preventing diabetes and many kinds of cancer. The focus of the study is to develop different samples of highly acceptable ready to serve (RTS) Moringa strawberry juice blend by underutilizing Moringa and strawberry juice in different proportions. bitter taste and green color steeply limits its acceptability and counter this drawback utilized with strawberry juice. The physicochemical analysis of blended juice was performed to investigate the suitability and keeping quality of the juice mixture. The collected data signify that pH titratable acidity (TA) and total soluble solids (TSS) the slight modification after the inclusion of Moringa juice extract and throughout the storage. The Moringa treatment positively improved the total phenolic content (TPC), antioxidant, and vitamin C from 12 to 49.17 mg GAE/100g, 61.41 to 87.69%, and 64.03 to 86.65 mg/100 mL, respectively, but there was a slight decline in antioxidant quantity while stored under refrigerated conditions for one month. An assimilative trend was noticed in TPC and vitamin C, which collapsed from 49.17-36.32 mg GAE to 86.65-79.19 mg, respectively. In accordance with sensory analysis (90% strawberry juice and 10% Moringa extract), the juice blend was rated best in context to flavor, color, and taste. This juice blend proved to be greatly effective especially for children suffering from malnutrition as well as women to counter with its appreciable number of nutritional constituents.

Berries are a valuable source of numerous bioactive compounds, and they have an interesting organoleptic profile. Unfortunately, their low storage life determines the need for their preservation. Among the various methods used in this regard, it was decided to use the High Temperature Short Time (HTST) (90 °C/15 s) and Ultra-High Temperature (UHT) (130 °C/5 s) methods to preserve the produced fruit nectar blends (strawberry-blackcurrant and strawberry-chokeberry).

This study aimed to unraveling the color evolution and metabolic pathways of pelargonidin-3-O-glucoside (P3G) during lactic acid fermentation of the strawberry juice color simulation system. The results revealed that fermentation with both Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus acidophilus caused a decline in pH of the strawberry juice color simulation system and significantly accelerated the decrease in P3G content. The CIELAB space model pointed out that parameters a and b of the group treated with both lactic acid bacteria and P3G initially increased to a peak level and then gradually decreased, shifting the overall color towards orange and then gradually fading.

Fruit juice production is one of the most important branches of the food and beverage industry, considering both the market size and demand. It is also one of the largest generators of industrial wastewater, considering the large consumption of fresh water during fruit processing. Hence, the appropriate treatment strategies are of the utmost importance to minimize the environmental footprint of food industry effluents.

Article Synopsis
- There is a growing push for increased plant food consumption, particularly soy foods, which have potential health benefits for women, despite ongoing controversies regarding their effects.
- A systematic review and meta-analysis of 40 randomized trials involving over 3,000 postmenopausal women were conducted to assess the impacts of soy isoflavones on various estrogen-related measures.
- The results showed no significant effects of soy isoflavones on endometrial thickness, vaginal maturation, follicle-stimulating hormone, or estradiol levels, indicating that they may function as selective estrogen receptor modulators rather than acting like estrogen itself.

Article Synopsis
- Fruit wine production from strawberries can extend their shelf life and increase their value, with different strawberry cultivars affecting the sensory quality of the wine.
- A study identified 1,028 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the juices and wines of four different strawberry cultivars and performed sensory analysis to evaluate flavor and aroma.
- The ZJ cultivar was found to have the highest sensory evaluation scores and alcohol content, suggesting it is the most suitable for fermentation compared to the other cultivars.
