Effect of Different Drying Methods on the Mineral Content of Three Accessions of Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) Calyces

B. Amoasah, F. Appiah, P. Tandoh & E. Amoateng · Asian Journal of Advanced Research and Reports · 2019

Fresh Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa l.) calyces have shorter shelf life due to their high moisture content. In order to extend their shelf life, Roselle calyces are dried. However, the effect of different drying methods on mineral composition are not sufficiently reported. A study...

Effects of Different Drying Methods on Proximate Composition of Three Accessions of Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa) Calyces

B. Amoasah, F. Appiah & P. Kumah · International Journal of Plant & Soil Science · 2018

Seeds of three roselle accessions (HS11, HS89 and HS41) were obtained from the Department of Horticulture, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, Kumasi, Ghana and grown to obtain the calyces. The calyces were dried by sun (34.9°C), solar (56.5°C) and oven (60.0°C) m...
