Specification (Table 2)

Table 2 of the Annex, row with the same name, as written:

Description/Definition:

Seeds and skin of the sun-dried fruits of Morinda citrifolia are separated. The obtained pulp is filtered to separate juice from the flesh. Desiccation of the produced juice occurs in one or two ways:

Either by atomisation using maize maltodextrins, this mixture is obtained by keeping the rates of inflow of the juice and maltodextrins constant

Or by zeodratation or drying and then mixing with an excipient, this process allows the juice to be dried initially and then mixed with maltodextrins (same amount as used in atomisation).
