The study on osmotic pretreatment of oyster mushrooms was carried out in order to remove the moisture prior to further mechanical drying. Three salt concentration level (10, 15 and 20 g/100 g), two temperature levels of osmotic solution (30 and 45°C) and constant solution to mushroom ratio of 10 (w/v) were selected and the observations on water loss and solid gain were taken at an interval of 30 min up to 300 min. The osmotically pretreated samples were further dried up to its equilibrium moisture content in a tray drier at 60°C and experimental data were fitted successfully using Page and Henderson & Pabis model. The osmo-convective dehydrated samples were evaluated for its quality parameters i.e. color (L, a, b, ∆E, C* and h°), rehydration ratio... |

In developed countries the milking collection is done to process in various diary plants situated far away from production areas. There is a problem of cool chain management, which, generally is absent at farm levels. To manage the cool chain in milk transportation system right from farm level it is required that some locally available techniques/materials should be selected and used for milk chilling. The objective of current study is to ascertain mechanism for chilling of milk at farm immediately after milking. The experiments were conducted and the cooling performance was evaluated by noting down the drop in temperature with respect to time using mercury thermometer. The respective regression equation and R2 value were obtained for every run of... |
