Abstract

The vapour sorption isotherms of five typical baked foods were determined at 20°C. In particular, the methodology proposed by Cost Projects 90 and 90 bis have been used. The latter procedure implies using a proper number of pieces of each product. The products have been closed in desiccators, in which nine different equilibrium relative (ERH) humidity have been created. The relative humidity inside desiccators have been checked daily until equilibrium, before piacing sampies. Moisture content of samples has been measured by a gravimetrie method, while water activity has been determined by a dew-point hygrometer. AlI obtained data have been interpoiated to fit the GAB equation or other equations and the mean relative percentage deviation modulus (E%) calculated.
