This study was carried out to evaluate the best preservation way for mango pulp preservation. For this the pulp of mango were preserved with thirteen different treatment combinations viz., pulp preserved with potassium meta-bisulphite 0.05% (T1), pulp preserved with potassium meta-bisulphite 0.1% (T2), pulp preserved with sodium benzoate 0.05% (T3), pulp preserved with sodium benzoate 0.1% (T4), pulp preserved with sodium meta-bisulphite 0.05% (T5), pulp preserved with sodium meta bisulphite 0.1% (T6), pulp preserved with potassium sorbate 0.05 % (T7), pulp preserved with potassium sorbate 0.1 % (T8), pulp preserved with sodium benzoate + potassium sorbate 0.05 % each (T9), pulp preserved with potassium meta bisulphite + potassium sorbate 0.05 % each (T10), pulp preserved with sodium meta bisulphite + potassium sorbate 0.05 % (T11), refrigeration 4±20C (T12), frozen storage -200C (T13), These treatment combinations were evaluated under completely randomized design with four replications. The results revealed that low temperature (-200C) storage was better with over all qualitative attributes viz., TSS, sugars (reducing and total), ascorbic acid and pH higher and acidity lower. Physico-chemical parameters of samples were observed at fortnight interval during storage (up to 90 days) and at end of storage acceptable pulp were used for different products (RTS, Squash and jam) preparation and analyzed its quality.
