Abstract
In this study, apple and apricot fruits were dried with different drying techniques including Reducing Atmosphere Drying [three different drying media were used: air,100% nitrogen and a gas mixture containing reducing gas (1-4% H2, 5% CO2, 91-94% N2 ; R (Mix)) ], lyophlizatör, vacuum and oven. The color values (L*, a*, b*) of the dried products were measured and compared. Results showed that the closest color values to the fresh apple were observed for lyophilization method in the first raw and RAD (Mix) in the second raw, and browning phenomenon was occured mostly in the oven dried apples. It was also determined the best drying method for apricot was for RAD (Mix). Since the increase in the L* value and decrease in the b* value after lyophilization, the desired golden color in dried apricot couldn’t be obtained in this technique. The most browning and discoloration technique was observed in the apricots dried with the vacuum drying technique.
