ABSTRACT
Different preservation technique, were employed in the storage of kunu, sobodrink and soymilk. Sodium benzoate, sodium sorbate and sodium metabisulphite at three different concentrations were assessed.
Pasteurization and refrigeration temperature during storage were also studied.
Results indicated that the chemical preservative were not able to preserve the soymilk and kunu beyond 20 hours while sobodrink treated with sodium benzoate was preserved up to 4 days. Conversely, the physical treatement (freezing) were able to keep sobodrink, soymilk and kunu for 8 days.
Pasteurization had no positive effect on the kunu and sobodrinks but pasteurized soymilk was preserved for a day.
