Ultraviolet-C treatment Freshly squeezed Chokanan mango juice was exposed to UV-C light (for 15, 30 and 60 min at 25◦C) and thermally pasteurized (at 90◦C for 60 s) to compare the effect on microbial inactivation, physicochemical properties, antioxidant activities and other quality parameters.The results obtained support the use of UV-C light to improve the quality of Chokanan mango juice along with safety standards as an alternative to thermal pasteurization.
