A review on utilization of red dragon fruit peel as prebiotic and natural ingredient / Nurul Ain Esa

The waste utilization of the fruit processing industries has arisen as one of the challenging elements in the globe due to the production of enormous volumes of byproducts, such as peels, seeds, and discarded flesh. Fruit peel is thought to make up at least 20% of the weight of fresh fruit. Fruit pe...
