Chemical composition of raw materials is known to influence the food value of juices. According to its chemical composition and pharmaceutical properties aronia is comparable with viburnum, black currants and bilberries. It is found to remove radionuclides, possesses spasmolytic, antiphlogistic, diuretic and holagogue properties as well as is effective against atherosclerosis, diabetes and allergic conditions. The scientists of Kharkiv Inst. of Radiology, whose attention has been drawn by the aronia, found that the technology for processing this fruit with obtaining cryopowders provides maximum preservation of its biologically active natural substances. Based on the berries, the development has been started of the new technology for producing a soft drink which will have both the refreshing and tonic effect as well as the prophylactic one. The chemical composition of the aronia is actively investigated to develop a new production technology for concentrated aronia juice and a natural colourant from its berries
