The jackfruit bulb
deeped at 40°B and 60°B sugar solution for 3 hours had
solid gain 11.16 % and 14.41 % and weight loss 19.86
and 38.83 %, respectively. Fig 3 shows the water loss
during osmotic dehydration of ripe jackfruit bulbs.
During 3 hours of osmotic dehydration in 40°B and 60
°B solution the moisture content was reduced from
75.29 - 55.25 and 73.82 - 33.66 %, respectively.
