Determinação do teor de umidade em grãos empregando radiação micro-ondas.Ciência Rural, v.44, n.5, mai, 2014. rice, brown rice, peas, beans, bean, black beans, chick-peas, lentils and corn, in ABSTRACT The determination of moisture in grains is an important quality parameter, since the water content in food has an infl uence on both storage and commercialization of product. The methods often used for determination of moisture in grains are based on the loss on drying in an oven (LOD). Although it is easy to perform, this method spent about 24h of heating, usually at 105° C, to obtain the result. In the present study is proposed the determination of the loss on drying assisted by microwave radiation (MALOD) for samples of grounded grains of white

Quality of reading among equipment for determining water content in corn kernels

“…In accordance with data from the USDA (United States Department of Agriculture [USDA], 2017) and research conducted by Rachaputi (2010), Even with the out-of-control points, the greenhouse method showed a higher process quality. Raschen et al (2014) noted that despite being easy to perform, this method requires a longer time for evaluation than do the other methods; it takes about 24 h of heating, usually at 105 °C, to obtain the result.…”

Cookies developed with malted barley residue: nutritional composition and health benefits

“…Products that contain lower moisture content may have a longer shelf life compared to those with high moisture (Silva, 2019). The moisture content of the food must be analyzed as it can serve as evidence of product quality, thus ensuring an increase in the storage and conservation time of this product (Raschen et al, 2014).…”

Ajustes Metodológicos Para a Determinação De Umidade Em Sementes De Arroz

“…O teor de água em sementes influencia tanto no armazenamento quanto na comercialização do produto (RASCHEN et al, 2014). Sementes armazenadas em determinadas condições ambientais de umidade e de temperatura, favorecem a propagação de fungos e a produção de micotoxinas, que são prejudiciais à saúde (MILLER, 1995) e pode prejudicar a conservação das sementes, prejudicando sua germinação e vigor ao longo do tempo.…”
