摘要
This study investigated physical and chemical properties of microwave finish dried apricots. Microwave treatment caused significant (P < 0.05) decrease in SO2 content of apricots at power levels over 400 W. As the power level increased moisture content decreased. No significant (P>0.05) alteration in L value was observed. Redness property (a value) increased significantly (P<0.05) with the increase in microwave power intensity. The taste and overall acceptance scores of the microwave finish dried apricots were smaller (P<0.05) when high (over 400 W) level of microwave power was used. Microwave finish drying method reduced the time of drying.
