Effect of Moisture Sorption Behavior on Color Quality of Cassia Alata Leaves

Effect of Moisture Sorption Behavior on Color Quality of Cassia Alata Leaves

The Cassia alata leaf is widely used for the medical uses as it is beneficial for treatment of skin diseases such as purities, eczema and allergy. The moisture sorption behavior included desorption and adsorption of C. alata leaves were investigated using standard static gravimetric method. The sorp...

The sorption isotherm was obtained at ambient temperature 24 °C and with the equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) range from 11.3 to 84.3 %. The equilibrium moisture content (EMC) of C. alata increased from 8.67 to 28.50 g water/dry matter with increasing ERH during desorption.
