title: Changes in the Amino Acid Composition of Dehydrated Orange Juice during Accelerated Nonenzymatic Browning.
abstract: Maillard reaction in dehydrated orange juice stored at 30 or 50 degrees C and a(w) = 0.44 was studied. The decreases of the total amino acids were 30 and 65% of initial concentration after 14 days of storage at 30 and 50 degrees C, respectively. Storage at 50 degrees C for 14 days caused a decrease of 11.8 g/L of carbohydrates, and glucose was more reactive than fructose. Loss of sucrose due to hydrolysis was also observed. Presence of 1-(N-substituted)amino-1-deoxy-D-fructose compounds in stored dehydrated orange juice was detected by thin-layer chromatography.
