This research examines rosella's effect on antioxidant activity and product acceptability in Pedada fruit jam, suggesting improvements.
Key Points
Adding roselle extract significantly enhances antioxidant activity in Pedada jam, improving health benefits.
The highest antioxidant activity was observed in the jam with 50% roselle extract, showing a significant reduction in IC50 value.
Utilizing a completely randomized design allowed for a robust evaluation of different levels of roselle extract in jam production.
These findings suggest that incorporating natural colorants like roselle can improve both the health benefits and consumer acceptability of fruit jams.
