In this research, the
antioxidant capacity(DPPH method), and total phenolic content (assayed
by Folin-Ciocalteu method), ,flavonoids, anthocyanins (pH differential
method) and ascorbic acids(2,6-dichlorophenol indophenol) in three fruit
tissues (
peel, pulp and whole fruit), of four apple cultivars commonly in
Syria(Red Delicious, Rome Beauty, Starking Delicious, Golden
Delicious), were studied.
In this study, dried apple pomace was prepared to use as a source of
dietary fibers in Arabic bread making. The total, soluble and insoluble
dietary fibers have been specified in the studied pomace, and then it used
in producing the Arabic bread.
The wheat flour of extraction ratio (72%) was
exchanged with dried apple pomace at (2,4,6)% levels. The aim of that was
to increase the fiber content of bread by the addition of the wastes of apple
juice processing, because it have good physiological effect on human health
and decrease calories.
