For each drying method, 100 g of fresh aril was used. The
protocols used in this present study were selected from the optimal
conditions of each method, which were preliminary studied in our lab.
In FIR drying, the aril was FIR dried in the FIR dryer at FIR intensity of
5 kW/m2 (FIR energy irradiated per FIR heater surface area).
