The equilibrium moisture contents (EMC) were determined for lentil extrudates produced under different processing conditions at 25°C and eight relative humidity (RH) in the range of 0.113 – 0.902. It was established that for the ten extruded samples the EMC values at the same RH were not statistically equal. Four models – Chung-Pfost, Halsey, Oswin, and Henderson equations were applied for analyzing the experimental data. The Oswin model was most suitable for describing the relationship between the EMC and RH.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
