PURPOSE:The juice of citrus fruits are treated with a synthetic adsorbent to remove hesperidin to prevent the pulp in the joice from preicpitating and give a juice whose turbidity and carotinoid are maintained, resulting in stabilized quality and good smell and taste. CONSTITUTION:Citrus fruits such as mandarin oranges are squeezed by a usual method and the resultant juice is, after sterilization if needed, treated with a synthetic adsorbent, preferably made of a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer with 300-500m<2>/g specific surface area and 50-100Angstrom average pore size to remove hesperidine in the juice. This removal prevents the pulp in the juice from precipitating and maintain the turbidity and carotinoid, thus giving a juice of stablized quality and good smell and taste. |
