Estimation of the precision of isosteric heats of sorption determined from the temperature dependence of food isotherms
This work estimates the influence of the experimental error in the determination of food isotherms on the precision of isosteric heats calculated by application of the Clausius-Clapeyron equation.

| Sumario: | This work estimates the influence of the experimental error in the determination of food isotherms on the precision of isosteric heats calculated by application of the Clausius-Clapeyron equation. Foods for which precise sorption data are available were analysed; the resulting uncertainty in calculated heats was important and suggested that alternative techniques should be used when a more quantitative picture of the heat of sorption is desired. © 1992 Academic Press Limited. |
