“…Table 4 shows that the performance parameters E s and R 2 followed a similar pattern among models and corn stover components, but the E m pattern deviated more from that of the other parameters. Such deviations among performance parameters have been frequently encountered (Boente et al, 1996;Soysal and Öztekin, 1999;Menkov, 2000;Viswanathan et al, 2003;Aviara et al, 2004). The pattern in F-statistic values resembled the E s and R 2 patterns.…”

“…(Boente et al, 1996;Soysal and Öztekin, 1999;Menkov, 2000;Viswanathan et al, 2003;Aviara et al, 2004) showed that E m , E s , and R 2 did not always line up with the indicated performance ranking of the models. In such situations, E s and R 2 were typically prioritized.…”

“…held samples stored at −15°C in a laboratory freezer before isotherm experiments. Previous researchers (Boente et al, 1996;Fan et al, 2000;Basunia and Abe, 2001;and McNeill et al, 2001) stored samples in cold or cool storage for EMC experiments. Minimal moisture loss during storage was not evaluated, although sample moisture status before the experiments was determined and reported.…”

“…EMC data have practical application, such as helping establish humidity bounds to inhibit microbial growth and mycotoxin production during storage (Boente et al, 1996). Moisture isotherms describe the EMC as a function of the environment equilibrium relative humidity (ERH) (Bell and Labuza, 2000;Rahman, 1995) and are useful for biological materials (Iglesias and Chirife, 1976).…”

“…9 Many mathematical relations have been proposed in the literature to model hygroscopic equilibrium data in food-application systems. 10,11 In the present article, we studied the behavior of water activity on LDPE/starch blends, employing six sorption isotherm models proposed by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller, 12 Smith, 13 Halsey, 14 Caurie, 15 Bradley, 16 and Oswin. 17 .…”

Moisture-sorption characteristics of starch/low-density polyethylene (LDPE) blends were carried out at 27°C for water activity (a w ) from 0.1 to 0.9. The sorption data were used to fit six different sorption isotherm models proposed in the literature. The model constants were determined by linear fitting of the sorption equations. The ranges of applicability of water activity for the isotherm models reported in the article lies between 0.1 and 0.4 (monomolecular layer) for the BET model and between 0.3 and 0.9 (multimolecular and capillary condensation layers) for other models. The value of the coefficient of determination (R 2 ϭ 0.97 Ϯ 0.02) confirms the linear fitting of the equations studied.
