Abstract: The healthy yogurt containing pumpkin was developed and evaluated an antioxidant effect of pumpkin in yogurt during storage. For the preparation of pumpkin yogurts, 15, 20 or 25 g of pumpkin level. and 5, 6 or 7 g of sugar level were added to 100 ml milk. There was a trend for more desirable color and texture of pumpkin yogurt at 20 g pumpkin level than 15 or 25 g pumpkin level. Pumpkin yogurt contained 7 g sugar level had a more desirable flavor, texture and overall accetability than those contained 5 or 6 g sugar level. To evaluate antioxidant effect of pumkin in yogurt during stroage, yogurts were prepared by milk alone, with pumpkin, with sugar, and with sugar and pumpkin. The sugar and pumpkin levels in yogurt were 7 g and 20 g per 100 ml milk. The malondialdehyde(MDA) content of yogurt prepared by milk alone were significandy affected by days of storage. During 13 days storage of yogurt, pumpkin and sugar exhibited antioxidant effect.
