Abstract:
Freeze drying is one important step in downstream processing of probiotics and starter cultures production and requires a long duration of the drying step, which, therefore, often is the overall production bottleneck. Microwave accelerated vacuum drying already showed promising results in terms of product quality for various food products. However, poor information on drying microorganisms by microwaves is available. The aim of this work was to set up a suitable microwave-vacuum drying process f...     »
