Notes:
Moisture sorption characteristics of sunflower nutmeat products (ground nutmeat, meal, protein concentrate and protein isolate) were investigated at temperatures 10°C, 20°C and 30°C, and the results were analyzed according to various sorption isotherm models. The best-fit models were the G.A.B. (Guggenheim-Anderson-de Boer) model for the ground nutmeat and the cubic polynomial model for the meal, the protein concentrate and the protein isolate. The Chen-Clayton model was the best-fit model for describing temperature effect in all the materials studied. The G.A.B. monolayer values were higher than the B.E.T. monolayer values for the materials studied.
