Abstract

The number of people suffering from insulin-dependent (Diabetes Melitus type I) and insulin-independent (Diabetes Melitus type II) is huge, and the number of potential diseased is in permanent rise. For that reason products with reduced amount of sugar have become very popular. Factory "Srbijanka" Valjevo manufactures reduced?sugar marmalades from apricot peach, strawberry, apple and orange. Low?metoxyl pectins and high-grade locust bean gum were used as gelation agents. Sensory evaluation and energy value of these marmalades were determined and all samples were highly graded. All marmalades belonged to the group of low-calorie (dietetic) products.Broj ljudi obolelih od insulin-zavisnog i insulin-nezavisnog dijabetesa je veliki, a broj potencijalnih dijabeticara je u stalnom porastu. Iz ovih razloga, proizvodi sa smanjenim sadrzajem secera su sve popularniji na trzistu. U fabrici "Srbijanka" Valjevo proizvedene su niskoenergetske marmelade od kajsije, breskve, jagode, jabuke i pomorandze. Kao sredstva za zeliranje korisceni su niskoesterifikovani pektini i guma rogaca. Gotovim proizvodima odredjen je hemijski kvalitet, senzorna ocena i izracunata energetska vrednost. Na osnovu senzorne analize, svi uzorci su bili visokog kvaliteta. Sve marmelade pripadaju grupi niskoenergetskih (dijetetskih) proizvoda.
