چکیده
Abstract One of the stages processing green bananas into flour is drying process. The kinetics this process needs to be studied as a step in optimizing and improving performance. This study aimed assess various models that could explain banana slices specify parameters slices. house effect (GHE) solar dryer was used for drying. data were fitted (Page, Newton, Henderson Pabis, Verma, Logarithmic). coefficient determination (COD), root square mean errors (RSME), Chi-square (χ 2 ) models’ validity. In GHE dryer, upper tray’s temperature higher than lower tray’s. Logarithmic model best reflects among evaluated models. range effective moisture diffusivity 1.190 x 10 −10 - 1.673 m s −1 . At 85.7073 kJ mol , activation energy determined

Value Addition of Banana (Musa paradisiaca): Development and Storage Evaluation using Osmo Solar Dehydration Technique
Many processing techniques can be employed to preserve fruits and vegetables. Drying and dehydration is one of the most important operations that are widely practiced because of considerable saving in packaging, storage and transportation. Osmotic dehydration has received greater attention in recent years as an effective method for preservation of fruits and vegetables. Being a simple process, ...
متن کاملPower Ultrasound Application on Convective Drying of Banana (Musa paradisiaca), Mango (Mangifera indica L.) and Guava (Psidium guajava L.)
Abstract—High moisture content in fruits generates post-harvest problems such as mechanical, biochemical, microbial and physical losses. Dehydration, which is based on the reduction of water activity of the fruit, is a common option for overcoming such losses. However, regular hot air drying could affect negatively the quality properties of the fruit due to the long residence time at high tempe...
متن کاملEvaluation of wound healing activity of extracts of plantain banana (Musa sapientum var. paradisiaca) in rats.
Plantain banana (M. sapientum var. paradisiaca, MS) has been shown to possess ulcer healing activity. The present work with plantain banana was undertaken with the premise that the drug promoting ulcer healing could have effect on wound healing also. Wound healing activity of MS was studied in terms of (i) percent wound contraction, epithelization period and scar area; (ii) wound breaking stren...
متن کاملPurification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray structure analysis of the banana lectin from Musa paradisiaca.
The banana lectin from Musa paradisiaca, MW 29.4 kDa, has been isolated, purified and crystallized. The trigonal crystals contain one dimeric molecule in the asymmetric unit. The structure has been solved using molecular replacement to a resolution of 3 A. The structure of the subunit is similar to that of jacalin-like lectins.
متن کاملPlant defense induced in in vitro propagated banana (Musa paradisiaca) plantlets by Fusarium derived elicitors.
Perception of microbial signal molecules is part of the strategy evolved by plants to survive attacks by potential pathogens. To gain a more complete understanding of the early signaling events involved in these responses, we used fungal components of Fusarium under in vitro condition and checked the rise in signal molecule, salicylic acid (SA), and marker enzymes in defense reactions against t...
