| Terminalia chebula retz (T.Chebula) is a herb known as king of medicinal plants in ayurvedic world. Presence of large number of phytoconstituents makes T.Chebula a potential source of nutraceuticals and can become cynosure of modern nutraceutical world. The objective of this study was to optimize the extraction conditions for bioactive constituents from T.Chebula fruits using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). A central composite face centered design (CCD) was employed. The extraction conditions for bioactive constituents from T. Chebula fruits were optimized by using three independent process variables i.e. methanol concentration, 50-90%, extraction temperature, 50-70°C and extraction time, 30-60 min. Effect of extraction parameters was found to be... |

| Drying characteristics of noodles prepared from 50% taro and remaining equal proportions of rice and pigeonpea flours were investigated in a convective type dryer for a temperature range of 50°C to 80°C at a constant air velocity of 1.5 m s-1. Results indicated that drying took place in falling rate period. The sample dried at 50°C was found better in color as compared to samples at 60°C, 70°C and 80°C. The rehydration weight of noodles decreased with the increase in drying temperature. Moisture transfer from noodles was described by applying Fick’s diffusion model and the effective moisture diffusivity was calculated. Effective moisture diffusivity increased with increase in temperature. An Arrhenius relation with activation energy of 38.53 kJ... |
