- Nutritional value of organic acid lime juice (Citrus latifolia T.), cv. Tahiti Carolina Netto RANGEL Lucia Maria Jaeger de CARVALHO Renata Borchetta Fernandes FONSECA Antonio Gomes SOARES Edgar Oliveira de JESUS Agrociencias fruit juice organic crops Citrus latifolia Physical and chemical composition Acid lime can be used as fresh fruit or as juice to increase the flavor of drinks. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze organic acid lime nutritional composition in order to evaluate if there are important differences among those conventionally produced. No significant differences in total titrable acidity, pH, ascorbic acid, sucrose, calcium, and zinc were found between the acid lime juice from organic biodynamic crops and conventional crops. However, the organic biodynamic fruits presented higher peel percentage than the conventional ones leading to lower juice yield. On the other hand, fructose, glucose, total soluble solids contents, potassium, manganese, iron, and copper were higher in the conventional samples. These results indicated few nutritional differences between organic and conventional acid lime juices in some constituents. Nevertheless, fruit juice from biodynamic crops could be a good choice since it is free from pesticides and other agents that cause problems to human health maintaining the levels similar to those of important nutritional compounds. 2011 artículo científico 0101-2061 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=395940111014 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3959 Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos (Brasil) Num.4 Vol.31
