Resumen
The commercial value of stevia dehydrated leaves is related to the content of
glycocides and their appearance. The present work approaches the effect of
packed bed drying conditions (temperature, flow rate and solid loading) on
glycosides and antioxidants activity of stevia leaves of Morita II variety.
Diffusion coefficient was calculated. The drying times ranged between 34 and
160 minutes, the temperature was the most significant factor followed by solid
loading and flow rate. Drying increases the concentration of antioxidants,
stevioside and reduces rebaudioside A.
