Storage of fruits requires processing interventions such as heating, dehydration. These techniques reduce antinutritional components of fruits, as well as suppress the growth of microorganisms on fruits. Drying techniques work by removing moisture to reduce water activity (aw) to an acceptable level and preventing microbial growth that reduces the shelf life of fruit products. However, these drying processes the quality and nutrient value of fruits. During typical drying, fruits are exposed to heat and oxygen, resulting in flavor, color, and textural changes.
