Objective of this study was to evaluate the nutritional and microbiological qualities of dried mangoes produced by two production units, namely Gninnangnon and Ivoire Organics located in the town of Korhogo. Four samples were taken from each unit and everything was mixed to constitute the sample from each unit. Samples were crushed and the flours obtained were used for the analysis of nutritional and microbiological parameters. Results of the nutritional parameters of Gninnangnon and Ivoire Organics obtained are respectively: humidity (19.74 and 19.43%), pH (3.10 and 3.08), total sugars (5.45 and 5.12%), carotenoids (2.80 and 2.90 mg/100g) and compounds phenolics (197.41 and 153.96 mg/100g). Regarding microbiological parameters, the samples did not contain Staphylococci, E. coli and Salmonella. All samples contained GAM and yeasts and molds. In addition, the Ivoire Organics sample contained total and fecal Coliforms unlike that of Gninnangnon. Despite the presence of certain germs, the results suggest that mangoes dried by these companies could be consumed safely.
