Freeze-Drying Investigations of Antlers
In this paper, the vacuum freeze-drying experiments of both antler slices and whole antlers are reported in details. The moisture content and the eutectic temperature of antler were measured. A 22 h process curve of antler slice freeze drying was obtained. The freeze drying process of whole antler was also investigated. The microscopic tissue structure was observed and chemical compositions were analyzed for those freeze-dried whole antlers in comparison with the traditional water boiling and hot air drying method. More nutrients were retained for freeze drying in addition to the better physical properties than traditional drying.
