Equilibrium Moisture Content and Thermodynamic Properties of Garri

Journal of Food and Nutrition Sciences
Gari, a widely consumed cassava product in West Africa, plays a vital role in the dietary needs of millions of people. Moisture content is a critical factor affecting its quality, texture, shelf life, and susceptibility to microbial contamination. This study investigates the equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of gari at varying temperatures (40°C, 45°C,

Moisture sorption isotherms and heat of sorption of Algerian bay leaves (Laurus nobilis)

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2015
The moisture sorption isotherms of Algerian bay leaves (Laurus nobilis) were determined experimentally in this work. The equilibrium moisture contents of the leaves were measured at 40, 50, and 60 °C using static gravimetric method.
