Fruits were washed with 0.01% sodium hypochlorite water solu-tion for 2 min and then air dried at ambient temperature for onehour. The mangoes were randomly divided into four lots of 60 fruitseach. All the treatments were conducted with three replicates. Oneof the four dipping treatments was then applied to each lot. Thefirst lot dipped in distilled water and was used as a control. Mangofruits were dipped in solution for three minutes. After dipping treat-ments, fruits were air-dried for 1 h. All fruits were packed in plasticboxes (40 × 30 × 12 cm) covered with polyethylene film (0.02 mmthickness) to maintain relative humidity (RH) of about 90% with-out modifying the atmosphere around the fruit, Five holes of 7 mmin diameter were made in the film and then the fruits were storedat 6 ± 1◦C for 28 days and after that the samples were transferredto 25 ± 2◦C for additional 5 days shelf life. The data were collectedbefore treatment (day 0) and at 7 days intervals for 28 days duringcold storage and for an additional 5 days shelf life. Twelve fruits ofeach treatment were sampled at 7 days intervals.
