Drying Model

The drying rate is difficult to control for perilla leaf during the microwave vacuum drying process. Through scientific approaches, this paper made a research on the relationships between drying factors and drying rate, and established a kinetics model on microwave vacuum drying of perilla leaf. The model can predict the water content variations of perilla leaf during microwave vacuum drying, and provides a theory basis for packaging, storage and transportation for perilla leaf production.

This study was conducted to optimize the drying process of Polygonum cuspidatum slices using an orthogonal experimental design. The combined effects of pretreatment methods, vacuum pressure and temperature of inner material, drying kinetics, color value, and retention of the indicator compounds were investigated. Seven mathematical models on thin-layer drying were used to study and analyze the drying kinetics. Pretreatment method with blanching for 30 s at 100°C increased the intensity of the red color of P. cuspidatum slices compared with other pretreatment methods and fresh P. cuspidatum slices. P. cuspidatum slices dried at 60°C retained more indicator compounds. Furthermore, microwave pretreatment methods, followed by microwave vacuum for 200 mbar at 50°C, resulted in high concentration of indicator compounds, with short drying time and less energy. This optimized condition for microwave vacuum drying and pretreatment methods would be useful for processing P. cuspidatum. The Newton, Page, and Wang and Singh models slightly fitted the microwave vacuum drying system. The logarithmic, Henderson and Pabis, two-term, and Midilli et al. models can be used to scale up the microwave vacuum drying system to a commercial scale. The two-term and Midilli et al. models were the best fitting mathematical models for the no-pretreatment case at 600 mbar and 60°C.

Abstract In order to explore the potential drying process, the effects of different drying methods (sun drying, hot-air drying, microwave-vacuum drying, and freeze drying) on the antioxidant properties and phenolic contents in white button mushroom fruit bodies were investigated. The Folin-Ciocalteu method was used to determine total phenolic content, while 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging, reducing power, iron-chelating ability, and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity assays were used to elucidate antioxidant activities. Results indicated that antioxidant properties in dried white button mushroom were affected by the drying methods to different extents, and phenolic contents showed significant differences (p<0.05) among different drying methods. Microwave-vacuum drying possessed the highest antioxidant activity in DPPH radical scavenging, reducing power and iron-chelating ability, respectively; and the content of phenolic compounds was 4.945 mg gallic acid equivalents (GAE) /g dry weight (DW). Sun drying was the worst in antioxidant activity and content of phenolic compounds was 1.964 mg GAE/g DW. Additionally, significantly positive correlation was found between the total phenolic content and antioxidant activity (p<0.01). As far as antioxidant activities are concerned, microwave-vacuum drying is proposed as an appropriate drying technique for white button mushroom.
