Ramandeep Kaur Gurpreet Singh Deepika Saxena and Gurpreet Singh Department of Horticulture Lovely Professional University Phagwara Jalandhar 144411 India Corresponding author ABSTRACT A Laboratory experiment was conducted to study the Effect of Post harvest treatments for enhancing shelf life of Litchi Litchi chinensis Sonn. at the experimental Laboratory School of Agriculture Lovely Professional University Phagwara during summer season of Keywords 2017- 18. The experiment was laid out in a Completely Randomized Design CRD with three replications. There were eight treatments used in which one control and remaining Litchi Shelf life treatments consist Chitosan 1 Ascorbic Acid 5 Ascorbic Acid 10 Citric Acid Chitosan Ascorbic acid Citric acid 5 Citric Acid 10 Oxalic Acid 5 and Oxalic Acid 10 . The Fruits were Oxalic acid dipped in different solution of these chemicals. The physical and chemical parameters of fruits were collected at 1st 3rd 5th and 7th day at room temperature. The fruits were spoiled Article Info after 7th day at room temperature. Post harvest storage studies revealed that under ambient and cold storage conditions chitosan 1 treatment showed slower rate of reduction on size Accepted 08 July 2018 of fruits weight and fruit volume and were significantly affected by treatments. There was Available Online significant effect of treatments on chemical parameters like TSS ascorbic acid total sugar. 10 August 2018 The highest TSS was recorded from the fruits treated with oxalic acid 5 . The maximum total sugar was .
