Colour change is a common physical phenomenon observed during drying, which need to be controlled since it directly affects consumer acceptance of dried products. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of using computer vision, combined with laser light backscattering analysis at 650 nm ...

Papaya mealybug: a new invading pest in West Africa
Freeze-drying represents a very effective method to significantly prevent loss of nutrients, especially heat-sensitive compounds.
Moreover, osmotic dehydration is frequently applied prior to drying in order to facilitate moisture removal and improve quality. In the present study, the effect of os...

Changes in microstructure and functional properties of papaya as affected by osmotic pre-treatment combined with freeze-drying
Papaya is an emergent food and cash crop in Western Africa. It is used as an export crop in Ghana and for urban consumption in Benin. Papaya fruits are severely attacked by Papaya mealybug causing significant losses in quantity and quality. To control the papaya mealybug a classical biological co...
