Abstract
Commercial samples (n = 16) of tamarind pulp powder were analysed; moisture content ranged from 3.5 to 8.8%; added starch from 23.0 to 41.3%; insoluble solids from 9.9 to 22.2%; and total reducing sugars from 18.6 to 25.0%. Samples contained: 74-143 mg% calcium; 23.8-27.7 mg% potassium and 1.2-3.4 p.p.m. copper. Data presented have been used for proposing quality standards for tamarind powder in India.
