Desarrolla una bebida funcional estimulante a base de arándano (Vaccinium corymbosum), pitahaya roja (Hylocereus undatus) e infusión de cáscara de piña (Ananas comosus L. Merr) de buena aceptabilidad sensorial y capacidad antioxidante. El sector de las bebidas es altamente dinámico en la industria alimentaria, destacando las bebidas funcionales, estas no solo hidratan, sino que también proporcionan compuestos nutritivos y estimulantes. En el estudio se realiza la generación de las formulaciones y, para ello, se utiliza el diseño de mezclas simplex centroide aumentado con los tres componentes principales; zumo de arándano, pitahaya e infusión de cáscara piña (10 a 80%), se evalúa su capacidad antioxidante mediante el método DPPH y el grado de satisfacción del color, olor, sabor, textura y satisfacción global mediante una escala hedónica de 7 punto en un panel consumidor c...

There are many native fruits in Peru containing essential nutrients for health and that have not been fully studied. The objective of this research was to determine the physicochemical, nutritional and morphological characteristics of five varieties of native fruits from the central Andean region and the northern Peruvian jungle: goldenberry (Physalis peruviana), sanky (Corryocactus brevistylus), cocona (Solanum sessiliflorum), yellow pitahaya (Selenicereus megalanthus) and camu camu (Myrciaria dubia). The fruits were washed, peeled, pulped, fleshed, and lyophilized, to determine, using standardized analytical methods, the nutrient content, such as vitamin C, fiber, soluble solids. The goldenberry, sanky and camu camu fruits presented the highest vitamin C content (43.0, 57.1 and 2,780 mg per 100g of fresh weight, respectively), while cocona and pitahaya had 4.54 and 8.0 mg per 100g of f...
