Abstract:The current study focused on the valorization of carrot leaves, Daucus carota L. because of their high amount of ascorbic acid (AA), phenolic compounds, and the related antioxidant activity. In this study, the changes in carrot leaves caused by different drying techniques (freeze, vacuum, microwave‐assisted infrared, oven) and different storage conditions (room temperature and refrigerator) were investigated. AA contents of fresh, dried, and stored carrot leaf samples were chromatographically determined. Addit… Show more
