Evaluation of Osmotic Dehydration Process in Plant Tissue with Low-Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging Enhanced with Paramagnetic Ions
A novel, non-invasive low-field Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) technique for studying the osmotic dehydration process in fruits and vegetables is proposed. A saturated solution of paramagnetic salt is used as both the osmotic substance and the contrast agent for MRI. Using courgette as an example,...
