Interconnection inberries pre-treatment and drying methods significantly(p=0.023) influenced the changes in moisture contentduring rehydration, with maximal probabilityP=97.70%.Pre-treatment method, berry cultivar andrehydration temperature had no significant influenceon rehydration capacity by berries if berries were driedin convection drier. However, if berries were dried inmicrowave-vacuum drier the rehydration temperaturehad the major influence on rehydration capacity.If time factor is not taken into consideration inmathematical data analyse, interconnection (berrypre-treatment and drying methods, rehydrationtemperature) of analysed factors has not significantinfluence on rehydration capacity with probabilityP=95.00%.(A)(B)Figure 4.
