Quality Characteristics and Antioxidative Activities of Guavapyun Added Korean Guava Fruit Extract

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of guavapyun after the addition of different ratios of extract (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0%), non-extract and vitamin C. The quality if the pyun containing 0.5% of the guava fruit extract (guavapyun) and vitamin C was higher compared with the quality of the control pyun. In the results of the proximatecomposition, the content of water was high in the control pyun relative to the vitamin C pyun and guavapyun and the carbohydrate, ash, crude lipid and protein content was high in guavapyun. The sweetness, pH and color (L, a, b value) were very high in the samples. The texture, hardness, chewiness and gumminess were significantly high in the control pyun and the adhesiveness and cohesiveness were high in guavapyun. However, there were no significant differences in springiness between the control and the added samples. The total phenolic content was higher in guavapyun (23.57 mg GAE/100 g) than the control pyun (18 mg GAE/100 g) and vitamin C pyun(15.05 mg GAE/100 g). The antioxidant activities determined by the DPPH method and ABTS method was higher in guavapyun (41.37 mM TE/g, 15.35 mM TE/g) than the control pyun (4.43 mM TE/g, 2.17mM TE/g) and vitamin C pyun (11.33 mM TE/g, 4.51 mM TE/g). Using the FRAP method, guavapyun(9.06 mM TE/g) was shown to exhibit a stronger ferrous ion chelating activity than the control pyun (4.49mM TE/g) and vitamin C pyun (7.03 mM TE/g). Thus, the studied indigenous guavapyun was high in both antioxidative activity and total phenolic content.
