Peach sugar contents

NIR has been applied for determining dry matter of onion [11], soluble solids of cantaloupe [12], and sugar contents of peach [13] and Satsuma mandarin [14],... 

The main difference between botrytized wines and other nonfortified sweet wines, for example, late-harvest wines, icewines (eiswein), or straw wines, is the extreme range and richness of the aroma compounds produced by Botrytis. Marked differences also exist in some other components (e.g., glycerol, acid composition), due to the microbial activity. According to the descriptors most often applied to these wines, they are characterized by peach, apricot, pear, quince, raisin, and honey flavors, combined with distinctive "botrytis or roti aspects. Another typical feature of botrytized wines is their high acid contents. These prevent them from appearing cloying, even if the sugar content is commonly over 200 g/1. 

Vitamin C Content of Thawed Frozen Sliced Peaches Packed with Sugar Syrup"... 

Other fruit spirits are distilled from fresh or frozen fruits or their juices (blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, currants, apricots, peaches and others) while adding alcohol. Pomaceous fruit spirits are made from fresh fermented apples or other pomaceous fruits, from the whole fmit or its juices without the addition of sugar-containing substances, sugar or alcohol of another kind with a minimum alcohol content of approx. 38% by vol. 

Table II shows that sucrose levels are highest in peach fruit and very low in blackberry, cherry, and grape. The % C.V. for sucrose content for many of the fruit samples is extremely high, most likely because of enzymic or chemical hydrolysis. The average sucrose content of plum fruit is 38 of total sugars, while processed plums contain only 1. Presence of large quantities of sucrose in prune juice has, in fact, been used as an indication of adulteration ( ). Cherries and grapes contain invertase Cllj 12) which may account for sucrose not being detected in some samples and may also explain the high % C.V. for those fruits. In examining apple Juice concentrates, we did not detect sucrose in seven-fold concentrates whereas we did in fo ar-fold apple concentrates (7.) > the time-temperature conditions allowing for complete hydrolysis in the more concentrated product.

Fruit nectars are produced from fruit slurries or whole fmits by homogenization in the presence of sugar, water and, when necessary, citric and ascorbic acids. The fruit content (as fresh weight) is 25-50% and is regulated in most countries, as is the minimum total acid content. Apricots, pears, strawberries, peaches and sour cherries are suitable for nectar production. The fruits are washed, rinsed, disintegrated and heated to inactivate the enzymes present. The fruit mash is then treated with a suitable mixture of pectinolytic and cellulolytic enzymes. The treatment degrades protopectin and, thus, separates the tissue into its individual intact cells ( maceration ).
