1. Moisture content. The initial moisture content of raw mango cubes was 86.85 g/100 g. The final moisture content varied from 5.86 to 10.61 g/100 g on wet basis after dehydration (Table 1). The variation in the final moisture was statistically significant (p 0.05), which was due to the subjective method used to terminate drying process based on appearance of the product. The results are therefore given on the dry basis (db) to offset any variations due to moisture content. The initial moisture content values reported in the literature were lower than those observed in the present study which might be due to the variation in fruit maturity and method of analysis employed
