Effect of fruit size and processing time on vacuum impregnation parameters of cantaloupe and apple

Effect of fruit size and processing time on vacuum impregnation parameters of cantaloupe and apple

This study evaluated the effect of two fruit sizes (3.5×2.5×1.0 and 1.2×1.2×0.8 cm<sup>3</sup>) and processing time (impregnation and relaxation times; both for 10 and 20 min), on some vacuum impregnation parameters of cantaloupe and apple. Fruit size and processing time significantly af...
