Produktbeschreibung
The cactus pear fruits is a fleshy berry, varying in shape, size and color. The fruit pulp is rich in vitamin C, minerals, free amino acids, polysaccharides, polyphenolic compounds, pigments and flavor compounds. Cactus pear fruit, usually consumed fresh or in processed form such as beverages, syrups, candies, jellies, marmalades, barbecue sauces, natural sweeteners, dehydrated sheets, nectars.

Therefore, this study was designed to maximize the utilization of Opuntia dillenii fruits.
