Abstract: An investigation held on "Influence of different chemicals on biochemical parameters of sapota cv. Kalipatti under cold storage condition" was conducted during May, 2019. The fruits were treated with Menadione (1000 and 2000 mg/l), Cycocel (0.250 and 0.500 ml/l) and Calcium Chloride (10000 and 20000 mg/l). The present investigation obtained results that the post-harvest dip treatment with CaCl2 20000 mg/l showed significantly maximum bio-chemical parameters viz., total soluble solid, ascorbic acid, total sugar, reducing sugar and non-reducing sugar, while slower decrease rate in acidity percent up to 24days of storage under cold storage. The calcium chloride 10000 to 20000 mg/l were found best or maintain the quality of sapota fruits up to 24 days.
