Abstract

This study evaluated the suspension stability of passion fruit nectar formulated with different concentrations of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). Passion fruit nectars with 0, 0.02, 0.1 and 0.2% (w/v) CMC were placed at rest in test tubes at room temperature (~25 °C) to measure the phase separation height for 87 h. Passion fruit nectars with 0 and 0.02% (w/v) CMC showed notable phase separation, while those with 0.1 and 0.2% (w/v) CMC were relatively stable suspensions. The analysis of sedimentation kinetics revealed that passion fruit nectars with 0 and 0.02% (w/v) CMC presented respectively: maximum sedimentation velocity of 0.426 m/s and 0.260 m/s, equilibrium sedimentation index of 46.494% and 20.434%, and sedimentation rate speed of 0.0362 and 0.0556%/s. A concentration of 0.2% (w/v) CMC is recommended in passion fruit nectar to maintain the appearance of a stable suspension, which is a characteristic desired by the consumer.
