Three factors studied were container (clear glass- and lightbrown glass bottles), temperature (4 oC and room temperature) and storage times (7 d, 5 and9 m after storage). It was found that krathon sauce stored in brown glass bottles at 4 oC for 5m had the highest percentage of protein (20.31%w/w) and gave the best antioxidant (IC50=3.297).
