INFLUENCE OF SPRAY DRYING PROCESS ON THE QUALITY OF AVOCADO POWDER: A FUNCTIONAL FOOD WITH GREAT INDUSTRIAL POTENTIAL

ABSTRACT Background: Colombia is the fifth largest producer of avocado and its agribusiness chain lacks value-added diversified products. Therefore, at the governmental level, there has been promotion of internationalization policies aimed at opening up new markets and innovation with improved tec...
