Molecular Mobility Characterization of Polymer and Solute Water States as Determined by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Rheology and Hydrodynamic Equilibrium (Nmr)
type: CreativeWork
description: The extreme importance of moisture content in the overall stability and acceptability of foods has been known for many years. The analytical determination of total moisture content and the measure of water activity (a(,w)) have both been shown to be imprecise indicators of stability. Therefore, both a theory and an analytical method which will fully elucidate the mobility and availability of water in food systems is still being sought; both are present in this work.
