ABSTRACT
Wines were produced from banana fruits using Baker’s yeasts and Palm wine yeasts. After extraction, banana fruit juice was found to contain low sugar content 9.2%, addition of 68g of sugar was added to beef up the yeast activity up to 22.36%. Acidic pH 6.5 and titratable acidity of 0.18%. Both baker’s yeasts and palm wine yeasts were used to ferment the banana must with production of alcohol. The alcohol content of palm wine yeast increased from 1.02% on the first day to 13.83% v/v on the 9th day, while that of the beakers yeast increased from 0.82% to 11.90% v/v. Changes were observed in the physiochemical of the wines in which sugar content decreased from 22.36% 0.18 to 2.27% 0.18 pH decreased from 6.8 to 3.8. Specific gravity was also decreased from 1.110g/cm3 to 1.01g/cm3 TTA increased with fermentation time from 0.23% 0.18 to 1.43% 0.02. Mean sensory score of the wine show acceptability level of 6.3 (Palmwine yeasts) and 6.2 (Bakers yeasts) at the 9 - point Hedonic scale. This was compared well with the 7.0 score of the commercial wine (pure heaven). Statistical analysis of tested parameters at 95% confidence level shows significantly differences. The chemical properties listed above were investigated during the fermentation period which causes the changes that occurred during the 0 – 9 days. Wine could thus be produced from banana for immediate consumption within 48hours. It was concluded that the production of wine from banana fruit fermentation was feasible and successful.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Banana (Musa
sapientum) is a fruit common in the tropics and is non seasonal. It is
readily available in Nigeria. Due to its high sugar content, it is suitable for
the production of wine (Robinson, 2006). Depending upon cultivar and ripeness,
the fresh can vary in taste from starchy to sweet and texture from firm to
musting. Both skin and inner part can be eaten raw or cooked. Banana’s flavor
is due, amongst other chemicals to isoamyiacetate which is one of the main
constituents of banana oil. Wine is an alcoholic beverage typically made from
fermented fruit juice. Any fruit with a good proportion of sugar may be used of
wine production and the resulting wines are normally named after the fruit
hence banana, apple, orange, pineapple, strawberries and coconut may be used to
produce wine. The type of fruit wine to be produce dictates the fruit and
strain of yeast to be involved (Alexander and Charpenter, 2004). Wine
production has not been a major market in Nigeria although institutions such as
NIFOR (Nigerian Institute for Oil Palm Research) have been involved in
production of bottled palm wine using chemical preservatives. Bioaccumulation
of chemical; preservative poses potential dangers due to either toxicity or
pro-toxicity (Idise and Izuagbe, 1988). It is thus pertinent to research for
means of producing wines devoid of chemical additives. Banana posses desirable qualities-high
fiber – content which helps restore normal, action, stimulates the production
of hemoglobin in the blood, contains potassium and has a low salt content which
helps to lower blood pressure as well as control stroke and when consumed along
with other fruits and vegetables, banana was observed to be associated with
reduced risk of colorectal cancer, and a women, breast cancer (Zhang, 2009) and
renal cell carcinoma. According to Uraih and Izuagbe (1990) eating banana as a
regular diet can cut the risk of death by strike as much as 40%. Thus, a wine reduced
from banana is a worth venture.
This study was aimed at small scale production with
desirable arganoleptic properties from banana for immediate consumption without
chemical preservatives. Banana, a wonderfully sweet fruit with firms and creamy
flesh that came pre-package in a yellow jacket, available for harvest
throughout the year consists mainly of sugars and filers which make it a source
of immediate and slightly prolonged energy when consumed, reduces depression,
anaemia, blood pressure, stroke risk, heart burns, ulcers, stress, constipation
and diarrhea. It confers protection for eyesight, healthy bones, kidney
malfunctions, morning sickness, itching and swelling, improves nerves functions
as well as help people trying to give up smoking (Idise et al., 2011). Some authors have established banana peels as an
energy-rich carbohydrate substrate for the development of microbial proteins
for food and feed applications (Chung and Mayers, 2002) banana peel should also
be considered to be a functional food source against carrier and heart disease,
since the banana peel is rich in gallocatechin.
