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 ...

A survey of the sanitary quality, particularly concerning aflatoxin contamination and practices of the dried yam chips food sub-sector was carried out in Benin. Producers and intermediaries of the yam chips food production sub-sector were interviewed and samples collected. Aflatoxin content was a...

BACKGROUND: Orange-fleshed sweetpotato (OFSP) can be used to tackle vitamin A deficiency, a major public health problem in most developing countries. In East Africa, common ways of using sweetpotato include drying and subsequent storage. The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of dryin...

Different drying treatments, cross flow, greenhouse solar, and open-air sun, were applied
to an American orange-fleshed sweetpotato variety. Trans-?-carotene losses in flour made from
dried chips varied between 16 and 34% in all treatments. Hot air cross flow drying retained
significantly more pr...

New yellow cassava fresh roots biofortified with β-carotene are becoming popular in Sub-Saharan Africa in the making of traditional products for households. However, β- carotene is susceptible to rapid depletion during processing. Therefore, we investigated the impact of using different drying me...

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...

The evolution of cassava drying industries on the northern coast of Colombia, as a result of a joint effort of CIAT/Colombian agencies, is discussed; projections for other Caribbean countries are included. It is stressed that the establishment of a cassava drying pilot plant would yield real data...
A series of feeding trials with sheep were carried out at the Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical in Colombia to assess the effect of wilting and drying on intake rate and acceptability of the shrub legume Cratylia argentea (Desvaux) O. Kuntze. In the first 2 experiments, intake rate was...
