Abstract

Heena, Navdeep Jindal and CS Riar Microgreens are young, nutrient-dense greens harvested at an early growth stage, typically when the first true leaves emerge. This study investigated the effects of fluidized bed drying at three different temperatures (40 °C, 45 °C, and 50 °C) on the physicochemical, phytochemical, and functional properties of radish microgreens. The microgreens were harvested 7 – 8 days after germination, reaching a height of 6 – 7 cm.
