%X The <i>Adansonia digitate</i> L. known as
Baobab is the only species present in West Africa and grows wild. All parts of
the plant are used by humans. In Senegal, baobab pulp is widely consumed; it is
used as raw material in small and medium enterprises (SMEs) for making juices,
concentrates, jams, powder. Drinks or juices from baobab are highly appreciated
by consumers; however rapid fermentation can happen even after pasteurization
that can shorten their shelf-life. A Doehlert experimental design was used to
find a good scale of heat treatment ensuring a proper conservation of baobab
juice. Results of the experimental design showed that a heat treatment of 80°C for 10 min gives a baobab juice with good
sanitary quality that meets the international standards.
