Abstract

Suitability of indigenously available glass containers has been studied for packing mango juice, banana puree, tomato puree and processed peas. Reduction in β-carotene was found to be less in amber coloured bottles compared to colourless bottles. Corrosive products like banana and tomato puree could be safely packed in glass bottles. Acidification of brine was found essential for packing processed peas in glass bottles.
