Sonchieu Jean

Abstract: The study was aimed at evaluating the influence of process variableon mass transfer parameters; water loss (WL) and solute gain (SG) on osmotic dehydration of plantain (Musa paradisiaca) in low calorie sugar solution. Fully matured unripe plantain fruits of the ´´False Horn´´ cultivar were peeled and sliced into thicknesses of 2.5, 5 and 10mm. The slices were immersed in the commercial low-calorie sugar solutionsof concentrations 12.5, 25 and 50% and varying sample /solution ratio (1:5, 1:10 and 1:20) at room … Show more
