Effectiveness of available filters for an electric hygrometer for measurement of water activity in the food industry
The effectiveness of the filters available for the Novasina Hygrometer for measurement of water activity (aw) in intermediate moisture foods, most of them suspected of being potential sources of sensor contamination, was investigated. Foods studied were apple preserve, chocolate topping, honey, milk...
