Studies on physico-chemical properties of Aonla (Emblica officinalis Gaertn.) jam blended with leaf extract of lemon grass, Pudina and Tulsi

Abstract

The present investigation entitled “Studies on Physico-Chemical Properties of Aonla (Emblica officinalis Gaertn.) Jam Blended with Leaf Extract of Lemon Grass, Pudina and Tulsi” was under taken at Post Harvest Technology Laboratory in Department of Horticulture, Sam Higginbottom University of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences, Allahabad, India during 2014-15. The experiment was laid out in (C.R.D.) completely randomized design with three replications and 10 treatments separately. The material used in the experiment was lemon grass, pudina and tulsi with three levels of each (0.5%, 1.0% and 1.5%).The products was stored for 100 days at ambient temperature. Ten treatment included in the trial are, T0 (Control), T1 (Lemon grass 0.5%), T2 (Lemon grass 1.0%), T3 (Lemon grass 1.5%), T4 (Pudina 0.5%), T5 (Pudina 1.0%), T6 (Pudina 1.5%), T7 (Tulsi 0.5%), T8 (Tulsi 1.0%) and T9 (Tulsi 1.5%) were tested in three replications. The treatment T9 (Tulsi 1.5%) was found to be most suitable treatment in terms of physico- chemical properties.
