This study aimed to develop an araticum (Annona crassiflora) juice supplemented with a probiotic strain L. paracasei LBC-81, and evaluate the viability during refrigerated storage period under in vitro gastrointestinal conditions. Three juices formulations were elaborated containing 20 % (F1), 30 (F2) 40 (F3) of pulp, without LBC-81. Changes physiochemical properties also evaluated. The three 28 days was significantly greater (P < 0.05) than recommended minimum (6 log CFU mL−1) for product be considered probiotic. showed formulation made pulp after storage. enriched marked decrease increase pH acidity, respectively. addition provided significant total phenolic content (F1: 1926; F2: 3338.6; F3: 4390.5 F1:1584; 2629; 3139 μmol galic acid/L bacteria, respectively) stability antioxidant activity 1492; 2305; 2618 F1: 902; 1461; 1450.2 TROLOX/L respectively). proved excellent matrix by providing high percentage survival
