Description DUI'ing the course of our detailed studies (5, 7, 11) on the physico.chemicar
composition of passion fruits (Passijl0ra edulis, Sims.), a survey of literature revealed
little published information on the effect of fruit size on the recovery and
quality of juice. However, some divergent reports (1,2,4,6, J3) are available on
the subject pertaining to o¥ber fruits like oranges, (I. 2) pineapples, (4, 6) apples.
(13) etc. In oranges, generally better quality is Ro;sociated with Emaller fruits (I)
and smaller oranges yield slightly more juice than the bigger ones (2). In the case
of apples, on the other hand, over.sized fruits do not keep as well as the normal
sized fruits (13). In pineapples, (4, 6) the juice content is generally in proportion
to their weight. No such information is available on paEsion fruit. The present
report covers this aspect.
