Concentration of fruit pulp is an important unit operation in food processing and has a wide range of applications. In this study, the microwave heating concentration (MHC) of raspberry pulp at different microwave powers, heating times and sample masses were investigated considering concentration characteristics and quality attributes. The results showed that increasing microwave power/heating time or decreasing sample mass significantly decreased the moisture content but had no significant effect on the temperature of raspberry pulp, while these conditions resulted in loss of total anthocyanin content and deterioration of total color difference. LF-NMR and SEM results revealed that the changes in temperature and moisture content caused by MHC significantly affected the total anthocyanin content and total color difference of the final product. Microwave power of 800 W, heating time of 3 min and sample mass of 90 g are selected as suitable parameters for MHC of raspberry pulp. This study may provide guidance for the development of appropriate technology for MHC of berry pulp.

In order to achieve differentiated utilization of red raspberry fruit pulp, a widely targeted metabolomics analysis of pulp from two regions was performed to explore the effect of plateau environment on the accumulation of secondary metabolites of red raspberry. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS), combined with principal component analysis and Orthogonal Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (OPLS-DA), was used to process the data and correlate them with the results of four antioxidant assays. Fourteen metabolites were characterized in the fruit pulp of Qinghai raspberries, and 618 up-regulated differential metabolites were found, which was 4.

For the structural characterization of the fiber polysaccharides of berry fruits in general and their xyloglucan architecture in particular, chokeberries, cranberries, raspberries, and red currants were subjected to monomer analysis after acid hydrolysis (HPAEC-PAD), methylation analysis (GC-FID/MS), and a specific xyloglucanoligosaccharide profiling approach (HPAEC-PAD/MS). The characterization was carried out on the whole fruit and on macroscopic fruit components: the fruit pulp and press residues, the latter being separated into seeds and seedless residues (mainly epidermal and vascular tissues). The complementary data provide a comprehensive insight into the cell wall polysaccharide architecture of these frequently consumed and fiber-rich plant foods.

Traditionally, biosorbents have been used to remove contaminants from polluted water, such as wastewater, landfill leachate, rainwater or drinking water. However, two alternative uses of biosorbents have been proposed relatively recently: the removal of heavy metals from fruit juices by biosorption and the use of saturated biosorbents as animal feed. Because these biosorbents are in contact with food or are used as animal feed, the concentration of contaminants in biosorbents must be known.

The structure-activity relationship has been a hot topic in the field of polysaccharide research. Six polysaccharides and three polysaccharide fragments were obtained from raspberry pulp. Based on their structural information and immune-enhancing activity data, an artificial neural network (ANN) model was used for prediction, and Gradient-weighted class activation mapping (Grad-CAM) algorithm was exploited for explanation structure-activity relationship of these raspberry polysaccharides in the present study.
