Production of clear star fruit juice by using enzymatic depectinisation and filtration method / Mohd Rozi Rosli
Clear star fruit juices were produced by using enzymatic depectinisation and filtration method. Fresh star fruit or known as carambola {Carambola Averrhoa L.) used were purchased from Selangor Fruit Valley, Malaysia. Colour index 4 (yellow) was chosen for the ripeness level of the fruit.
