Özet

Pomegranate juice has become more popular because of attribution of antioxidant action and phenolic compounds. As there is an increasing concern about potential health benefits of ellagic acid, it is of great interest to evaluate effects of different processing techniques on ellagic acid contents of pomegranate juices. The aim of the present work is to study the effect of storage to obtain different pomegranate juices on phenolic acids such as ellagic acid, total phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity. Pomegranate juices were prepared by three different processing techniques which are called cloudy raw, clear and concentrated pomegranate juice. All pomegranate juice samples were stored at +4°C for 150 days in amber glass bottles. Significant changes in amount of phenolic compounds were observed in each juice during storage. Total phenolic substances of cloudy, clear and concentrated pomegranate juice, respectively 2.2%, 5.3% and 6.1% reduction have been identified but cloudy and clear pomegranate juice samples in the amount of ellagic acid have been determined respectively 49.1% and 103.6% increase. Cloudy and clear pomegranate juice samples in the amount of total antioxidant activity have been determined respectively 13.7% and 12.2% reduction. Samples which had high amount of total phenolic compounds at the same time exhibiting the highest antioxidant activity determined. Variations were more significant in clear juice compared to the increase in cloudy pomegranate juice. Besides, a slight decrease observed in clear pomegranate juice from concentrate. These may be due to the contribution of free ellagic acid to development of insoluble sediments in pomegranate juice during storage.
