Effect of Temperature‐Controlled Microwave Drying on the Physicochemical and Microbiological Properties of Kefir Powder

In this study, the physicochemical and microbiological properties of kefir powders produced using a drying system modified by microwave temperature‐control (MTCM) and foam‐mat drying (FMD) were evaluated. The color parameters ( L , a , and b ) of the kefir powders ranged between 89.68–91.16, −1.54–(−4.48), an...

Assessment of the effects of drying temperatures on effective moisture diffusion and quality properties of purple carrot slices dried by hot air method

This study examined the influence of hot-air drying temperature on the moisture ratio (MR), drying rate (DR), effective moisture diffusivity (Deff), color characteristics (L, a, b, C, and ΔE), and hardness (N) of purple carrot slices. A clear temperature-dependent response was observed for both the drying behavior and...
