Application of Ross' equation for prediction of water activity in intermediate moisture food systems containing a non‐solute solid

This work investigates the use of the Ross (1975) equation for the prediction of water activity (a), in aqueous electrolyte or non‐electrolyte solutions to which a non‐solute (casein) was added. Water activity of the ternary mixtures (casein‐water‐solute) was in the range of a, = 0.85‐0.90 which is...
