Development of new products which present a good organoleptic quality but also offer other advantages such as the incorporation of healthier ingredients is currently a priority in the food industry. It is also important that the elaboration method of these products is as soft as possible to preserve the maximum characteristics and nutrients of fresh fruit. In this sense, the elaboration of heal...

in this study, mathematical modeling of hot air-drying of thin-layer papaya (carica papaya l.) slices with 5±1 mm thickness pretreated in osmotic solution (50% sucrose) was investigated. thin-layer drying was conducted under three different drying temperatures of 40, 50 and 60 °c at a constant air velocity of 0.9±0.1 m/s and absolute humidity of 0.6 ± 0.02 g of water/kg of dry air. it was found...

An Experiment was conducted at the Postharvest laboratory, Department of Horticulture entitled with “Effect osmotic dehydration beetroot (Beta vulgaris L.) under sun drying” during year 2021-2022 to determine effect drying on slices for its evaluation physio-chemical contents, shelf life, and sensory total 60 days storage period work out economics In this study, 10 treatments varying amounts sa...

in this study, the effect of edible coat (carboxy methyl cellulose) before osmotic dehydration anddifferent drying methods on sensory and physical properties of dried apple (v. golden delicious)rings was investigated. the coated and non-coated samples pretreated with 50% sucrose osmoticsolution and dried in freeze drier (-40 to -50°c, 0.026-0.017 mbar, 24 hr), vacuum drier (70°c, 200mbar, 8-10 ...

Dehydrofreezing is a food freezing method in which the foods are partially dehydrated before freezing. In this study, carrots were frozen with convective (-30, -35, -40oC and 2 m/s airflow) cryogenic methods after dehydrating them by different (osmotic dehydration, vacuum drying). The effects of dehydration method, conditions storage time on β-carotene amounts dehydrofrozen changes content duri...
