To understand the viscoelastic characteristics (i.e. hardness) of the maize (Zea Mays L.) grain in relation to high-temperature drying, a breakage tester (HT-I drop tester) was developed and single-grain breakage at various grain temperatures and times after drying was determined. Both hard and soft

In this research, seven equilibrium moisture content (EMC) and equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) equations (modi"ed Henderson, Chung}Pfost, Modi"ed Halsey, Henderson, Chen}Clayton, Iglesias}Chirife and modi-"ed Oswin) are compared on their ability to "t data for some medicinal and aromatic plants.
A logistic regression model was built to describe the effect of picking time and the most relevant commercially applied storage factors on the incidence of core breakdown in pears (Pyrus communis L. cv. Conference). The statistical analysis showed that the probability of core breakdown depended on s
## Abstract Effect of moisture and temperature on changes in total carotenoids, fat acidity, free and bound lipids and their composition taking place during storage of atta are reported. At moisture contents of 10.4% and below, increase in fat acidity results mainly from hydrolysis of neutral lipid
