Systematic study of how different drying methods, namely hot-air drying, vacuum-drying, and freeze-drying, affect color, browning index, degree of rehydration, water solubility, and vitamin C content is critical for utilizing pine needle powders (PNP) as a novel ingredient in functional foods. Samples prepared by vacuum-drying showed a significantly higher $L^*$-value, whereas higher $a^*$- and $b^*$-values were detected in the hot-air dried samples (P<0.05). The browning index was significantly higher in samples prepared by vacuum-drying compared to samples prepared by freeze-drying (P<0.05). Freeze-dried PNP exhibited a significantly higher degree of rehydration than hot-air dried samples (P<0.05). Water solubilities of freeze-dried and hot-air dried samples were significantly higher than that of vacuum-dried sample (P<0.05). Vitamin C was less destroyed during freeze-drying compared to hot-air or vacuum-drying (P<0.05). Freeze-dried samples displayed a clear porous structure and appeared to have a bigger space, whereas hot-air dried samples showed lower porosity than vacuum and freeze-dried samples.

In case of using rapid vacuum-freeze drying for high quality dry flower of flowering plant, the morphological and physiological characteristics of dry rose showed as the following. The dry ratio of about 82% presented after 1 day in case of using rapid vacuum-freeze drying and it was reached that the optimum storage water content of general dry products was 18%. The dry ratio of about 89% presented after 4 days. This result indicates very short dry time comparing with natural dry time of 12 days. Also, the morphological characteristics of flowering plant in case of vacuum-freeze drying showed similar shape with real flower. The contraction decreased about 9% comparing with real flower under dry time of 72 hours. But the contraction in case of natural dry decreased 36% and showed noticeable difference. The brightness which affects physiological characteristics of dry flowering plant showed lower values according to the dry process and chromaticity was thick. After 4 days, natural dry was thick with about 2 times comparing with vacuum-freeze drying. In case of vacuum-freeze drying, the quantity of anthocyanin and chlorophyl which affect discoloration and bleaching of dry flowering plant showed the clear difference comparing with natural dry method due to the sublimation by vacuum after rapid freeze with short initial time.

Freeze drying under vacuum condition is a complex process that involves simultaneous heat and mass transfer, sublimation of ice, and motion of sublimation front. Proper treatment of the motion of sublimation interface is crucial for an accurate prediction of the freeze drying process. Based on the enthalpy formulation that has been successfully used in liquid/solid phase change problems. a fixed grid method. streamlined for the freeze drying analysis. was developed in this study. The accuracy of the fixed grid method was checked by solving a one-dimensional tray freeze drying and a two-dimensional vial freeze drying problem and then comparing the results with those by the moving grid method. Finally. the freeze drying characteristics of two-dimensional slab and axis-symmetric cylinder was investigated using the fixed grid method.

The effects of drying methods on the physicochemical properties of chaga (Inonotus obliquus) mushroom powder were investigated. Scanning electron micrograph revealed that freeze drying produced smaller particle- sized samples which in turn resulted in higher porosity than did vacuum and hot-air drying. Samples prepared by freeze drying showed a significantly higher L*-value as compared with those prepared by hot-air drying and vacuum drying (p<0.05). The lightness (L*-value) significantly decreased with increasing relative humidity and storage temperature regardless of drying method (p<0.05). The yellowness (b*-value) increased significantly with increasing relative humidity (p<0.05). Browning index was significantly lower in samples prepared by freeze drying (p<0.05) but not significantly different between samples dried by hot-air and vacuum drying. Freeze dried sample exhibited a significantly higher degree of rehydration than other samples (p<0.05) probably due to the small particle size. Water solubility of the freeze dried sample was higher than those of the other methods while swelling ratio of the same sample appeared to be lower than those of others. Freeze dried chaga mushroom powder contained significantly lower amount of total phenolics and total sugar as compared to other samples (p<0.05).

Changes in the alliinase activity during the hot air drying and vacuum freeze drying of garlic samples treated as the whole, sliced and crushed state were investigated. The specific activity of alliinase in raw garlic was 8.52 units/mg protein. The activity in the whole garlic prepared by the hot air drying for 8 hrs was reduced remarkably to 5.22 units/mg protein with 61% remaining and to 4.25 units/mg protein with 50% remaining for 36 hrs. The activity in the sliced garlic prepared by the hot air drying for 36 hrs was reduced to 3.55 units/mg protein with 42% remaining and the activity in the crushed garlic prepared by the hot air drying for 36 hrs was reduced to 3.12 units/mg protein with 37% remaining. The garlic sample sliced or crushed was higher than the whole state in the efficiency of drying but was lower in the remaining activity of alliinase. The activity in the whole garlic prepared by the vacuum freeze drying for 8 hrs was reduced to 7.21 units/mg protein with 85% remaining and to 5.53 units/mg protein with 65% remaining for 36 hrs. The activity in the sliced garlic prepared by the vacuum freeze drying for 36 hrs was reduced to 4.55 units/mg protein with 53% remaining and the activity in the crushed garlic prepared by the vacuum freeze drying for 36 hrs was reduced to 4.16 units/mg protein with 49% remaining. The remaining activity of alliinase in the garlic samples prepared by the vacuum freeze drying was higher than the remaining activity in the garlic samples prepared by the hot air drying.

The specific objectives of this study were to dry yam chips using microwave vacuum drying, freeze drying and hot air drying, then to coat the dried yam chips with ascorbic acid cocrystallized sucrose, and finally to compare the quality of yam chip snack foods with respect to drying and coating characteristics. The microwave vacuum dried sample showed the highest drying rates and much less surface damage than the hot air dried one did. The shape and color of the microwave vacuum dried/coated sample were allocated between those of the freeze dried/coated sample and the hot air dried/coated sample. The freeze dried/coated sample scored excessively low in organoleptic hardness and chewiness to be suitable as a snack. The hot air dried/coated sample was too deep in color, wrinkled, excessively high in organoleptic hardness and chewiness, and excessively low in mouthfeeling. Therefore, the microwave vacuum dried/coated sample presented the best overall attributes as a snack, with respect to organoleptic characteristics, shape, color, and drying rates.
