Literature experimental data on water activity and food system composition in a wide variety of intermediate moisture foods (IMF) were utilized to test the validity of Ross' equation. The results obtained were satisfactory and indicate that Ross' equation constitutes a simple and reasonably accurate method for predicting the water activity in IMF.
