Drying characteristics of Mulberry (M. alba) including sorption isotherms and drying kinetics
were investigated. Adsorption and desorption isotherms at 10, 20 and 30° C and isosteric …

In this study, thin layer air-drying experiments of mulberries grown in Istanbul, Turkey, were
conducted. The effect of pretreatment solutions such as ethyl oleate, citric and ascorbic acid …

Mint has been used as a medicinal and aromatic plant since ancient times. Its leaves are
used for flavoring, tea infusions and spicing. In addition, mint oil is used to treat several …

In this paper an experimental investigation is presented on sun drying of mulberry fruits. Sun
drying experiments were conducted for mulberry fruits (Morus alba L.) grown in Istanbul …

The drying behaviour of tomato slices was investigated at 45, 60 and 75° C. Three falling
rate periods were observed with diffusion coefficients in the range 3.72–12.27× 10− 9m2s …

The drying characteristics of carrots are investigated experimentally and theoretically for
different drying conditions. Carrot slices with three different thicknesses are used. Initially …

The drying of dill and parsley leaves was investigated in a laboratory dryer. The effect of
temperature on drying rate of samples at constant air velocity (1.1 m/s) and various …

The thin-layer drying behaviour of mint leaves for a temperature range of 35–60° C was
determined in a cabinet dryer. The increase in air temperature significantly reduced the …

The effect of pretreatment (0.5% citric acid solution) and drying air temperature (40, 50, 60,
and 70° C) on drying characteristics of button mushroom slices was investigated in a cabinet …

In this study, murta (Ugni molinae Turcz) or murtilla berries were dried in single layer at air
temperatures of 50, 60 and 70° C under vacuum and atmospheric pressure conditions. The …
