Concentration changes of glucose (black circle), ethanol (red square), fructose (grey triangle), and sorbitol (blue inverted triangle) during fermentation by S. cerevisiae in pear pulp (a), pear juice (b), persimmon pulp (c), and persimmon juice (d), respectively. There were significant differences for glucose consumption (p-value = 0.02) and sorbitol production (p-value = 0.008) using pear pulp and pear juice
