were measured
by the spin-echo method (echo time=7 ms) with 0.1 or 0.2 s and 1 s repetition times.
The images appeared along with the thawing time, and signals uniformly covered the sliced plane of the samples in the thawed condition.
Information about the thawing process and tissue structures of the materials was obtained during transit thawing conditions. The thawing
kinetics were examined with increased signal intensity, which were divided into two types. The signal increased linearly and saturated for
okra and asparagus but exhibited convex curves for soybeans, broad beans and taro.
