Effects of different pretreatment techniques on the color indexes, drying characteristics and rehydration ratio of eggplant slices

This study aimed to examine the influence of microwave pretreatment (MWP) for 0, 15, 30, 45, and 60 s, and ultrasound pretreatment (USP) for 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 min, on the drying time, effective moisture diffusivity (Deff), rehydration rate, color indexes (lightness, redness, and yellowness), and...
