Article Abstract

The quality profile, extraction yield, and fermentation chemistry of palm sap depend on various factors such as extraction technique, weather conditions, and preservation methods. This review aims to provide a detailed overview of palm sap extraction techniques and the methods for its preservation. The compositional analysis of palm sap, including physical and chemical parameters such as sugar content, acidity, and mineral composition, is discussed thoroughly. The role of microorganisms in fermentation and the effects of various influencing factors are also critically examined. Additionally, this review evaluates different preservation methods, including thermal processes, refrigeration, and electrical techniques, highlighting their effectiveness in extending the shelf life of palm sap. The review further explores the emerging impact of nanotechnology on palm sap preservation, offering insights into the latest industry challenges, developments, and future prospects. By presenting these findings, this review aims to enhance the scientific understanding of palm sap and stimulate additional research and innovation in the field, paving the way for improved production practices and product quality.

The forgotten wine: Understanding palm wine fermentation and composition.

Int J Food Microbiol

February 2025

School of Agriculture, Food and Ecosystem Sciences, Faculty of Science, The University of Melbourne, Victoria 3010, Australia. Electronic address:

Palm wine is an alcoholic beverage that has existed for centuries and has important economic and socio-culture values in many tropical and sub-tropical countries. Lesser known than other types of wines, palm wine is made by spontaneous fermentation of palm sap by naturally occurring microbial communities. The palm sap ecosystem has unique microbial composition and diversity, which determines the composition of the eventual wine and is likely affected by geographical distinctiveness.

Nipah virus spillovers via consumption of date palm sap in Bangladesh vary substantially between years and have been associated with lower winter temperatures and precipitation. However, the mechanisms driving the interannual variation and the influence of weather remain unexplained. Here we investigated the hypothesis that weather patterns change human sap consumption and explain interannual variation in observed spillovers.

Study on the changes during the fermentation of the wine prepared from palm () sap.

Heliyon

August 2024

Department of Food Technology, Central Campus of Technology, Tribhuvan University, Dharan, 56700, Nepal.

The sugary sap of different palm trees is fermented to create palm wine, an alcoholic beverage. This work was aimed at studying the changes that occur during the fermentation process of wine made from the sap of the wild date palm species . At first, the best age of the palm tree was determined by observing total soluble solid and sap yield for 24 h and was found to be middle-aged palm plants (15-40 years old).
