What is 9 - Effect of The Different Drying Methods On The Chemical Composition of Fluted Pumpkin Leaves about?

This study investigates the effects of different drying methods on the chemical composition of fluted pumpkin leaves (Telfairia occidentalis), a popular vegetable in Nigeria. Results indicate that drying significantly reduces moisture content while enhancing dry matter and certain nutritional components, particularly in oven-dried samples, although mineral content declines. The findings suggest that while drying improves some nutritional attributes, it also compromises mineral content, making it a viable me
