The aim of this research was to study the influence of sucrose on the degradation of anthocyanins in makiang jam. Makiang flesh was prepared by three different methods. In the first method makiang flesh was mixed with sucrose at three different raitos (2:1 3:1 and 4:1) in the second method makiang flesh was soaked in sucrose solution (35 Brix) at three different ratios (1:1 1:1.5 and 1:2) and in the last method makiang flesh was prepared without addition of sucrose. After the jam processing makiang jams were stored at two different temperatures (the ambient temperature and 40 C) for 30 days to measure the degradation of anthocyanins. The results showed that the anthocyanins content in makiang jam decreased with increasing the storage time. The degradation of anthocyanins in makiang jam prepared by makiang flesh without addition of sucrose was higher than those prepared by mixing makiang flesh with sucrose or soaking makiang flesh in sucrose solution. Mixing makiang flesh with sucrose had lower anthocyanins degradation than soaking makiang flesh in sucrose solution. Makiang jam stored at the ambient temperature had lower anthocyanins degradation compared to those stored at 40 C.

Gac fruit healthy fruit contains many antioxidants such as beta-carotene lycopene. Traditional process by boil reduces antioxidants. The purpose of this study is to process gac juice mixed passion fruit juice by microwave. The optimum formulation from consumer tests were done with 50 juice preferred consumer show that the average like is 3.90 point (5 point). The study used the 3X2 factorial in CRD with 600 700 and 800 watts and at 45 and 55 sec. Analyzed color amount of beta-carotene lycopene pH and microorganisms showed that 700 watts at 45 sec. gave the highest level of beta-carotene contents at 38.11 ?g/g. The comparison between the gac juice mixed passion fruit juice through boiled process and the gac juice mixed passion fruit juice through microwave process was investigated. The content of beta-carotene and lycopene of juice through microwave process was than 2.43 and 1.59 times respectively.
