For this purpose, the color parameters of Hunter L,a,b and browning index (A42o), and estimated values of chroma, hue angle, AE, Hunter a/b and a ~ b were examined. The changes in color of tomato samples followed both zero and first order kinetic models to describe visual color changes, and &E parameters followed first order kinetic. It was concluded that Hunter axb parameters can be used adequately to follow up the color change of tomato samples during the drying.展开更多
