* = Score out of 9 marks, **= cfu/ml juice, K1 = Kinnow juice (100%), K2 = Kinnow juice (95%) + Aonla (5%), K3 = Kinnow juice (92%) + Aonla (5%) + Ginger (3%), K4 = Kinnow juice (90%) + Pomegranate (10 %), K5 = Kinnow juice (87%) + Pomegranate (10%) + Ginger (3%), T1 = Processing at 75°C for 15 minute, T2 = Processing at 85°C for 15 minute, P1 = KMS 500 ppm, P2 = KMS 750 ppm Each value is a mean of 3 replication (n=3)
