ribes nigrum fruit juice

Ribes nigrum fruit juice is a natural extract obtained by expressing the liquid from black currant berries belonging to the species Ribes nigrum L. in the family Saxifragaceae. This material manifests as a dark, aqueous liquid notable for its distinctly fruity flavor profile. Known by various synonyms including black currant fruit juice, Currant, Ribes nigrum, ext., and black currant concrete, this extract is commonly utilized in flavor and cosmetic formulations. Its sensory properties provide a characteristic note reminiscent of fresh, ripe black currants. The juice is primarily sourced through mechanical pressing of the fruit, preserving much of its original aromatic profile. For detailed chemical information, it is linked to controlled vocabulary entries such as PubChem. This ingredient is well-recognized in industries utilizing fruit-derived materials.

Ribes nigrum fruit juice naturally derives from the black currant plant, a species cultivated predominantly in temperate regions for its edible berries. The juice’s application spans cosmetic and flavor sectors where it contributes a fruity sensory note. In cosmetics, it is valued for its skin conditioning properties. The flavor industry employs this juice as a natural ingredient to impart authentic black currant taste. Usage guidelines adhere to standards such as FEMA (US), ensuring its suitability and safety in formulations. Its presence in products ranges from skin care solutions to flavored food and beverages, underscoring its versatility derived from a natural botanical source.

Ribes nigrum fruit juice exhibits physical properties consistent with aqueous fruit extracts, including a dark coloration and liquid consistency suitable for incorporation in various matrices. Its chemical composition, rich in organic acids, sugars, and aromatic compounds, influences its sensory attributes and stability. The juice’s fruity flavor primarily arises from volatile compounds inherent to black currant. Its aqueous nature facilitates solubility in water-based formulations. Due to its natural origin, batch variability may occur depending on harvest and extraction methods. Physicochemical traits such as pH, density, and solubility directly impact its performance in cosmetic and flavor applications, requiring consideration during formulation development.
