Physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities of marula fruit (Sclerocarya birrea subsp. Caffra) steamed and boiled before juice extraction. [PDF]

Food Sci Nutr, 2023
This study showed the importance of processing on nutritional qualities of marula fruit juice. The boiling and steaming decrease the vitamin C content of the juice when compared to unprocessed marula fruit. Steaming of the fruit (Marula) before juicing increases the total phenolic content and antioxidant activities of the marula fruit juice.
