Valorization of Cactus Cladodes (Opuntia ficus indica): The Effects of Different Drying Methods on Antioxidant Compounds and Physicochemical Characteristics

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2026.
Opuntia ficus indica cladodes were sliced to 5 mm and dried using conventional, microwave, and ultrasound pretreated vacuum‐assisted convectional drying. Drying significantly affected total phenolic content (p < 0.05), with the highest value obtained using ultrasound pretreated vacuum‐assisted convectional drying at 70°C.
