Description Suitability of plastics pouches prepared from a laminate of polyester/polyethylene (PE) for packaging (i) mango juice, and pouches of (a) low density PE, (b) polycell, (c) PE-coated paper, (d) laminate of paper/Al foil/low density PE, and (e) Al collapsible tube for (ii) mango jam and (iii) tomato ketchup for storage at room temp. (25-28 degree C) and at 37 degree C were investigated. Data on physico-chemical parameters (total carotenoids, ascorbic acid, reducing sugar), microbiological analysis (total bacterial, coliform, yeast and mould counts) and organoleptic characteristics (colour, taste, flavour and acceptability) revealed that the polyester/PE pouches were not suitable for packaging (i); and that (d) and (e) were suitable for packaging (ii) and (iii) (for up to 6 months at 25-28 degree C and 37 degree C).
