The drying data were used to describe microwave drying kinetics of parsley (Petroselinum crispum Mill.) leaves.
The parameters k and n of semi-empirical Page’s equation [Eqn (1)] for a given drying condition were estimated using non-linear regression technique (Table 1 and the fitness is illustrated in Fig. 3. The model gave an excellent fit for all the experimental data points with values for the coefficient of determination of greater than 0
