Moisture Content - Loss on Drying

Method Description

Loss on drying measures moisture content by weighing samples before and after controlled heating, providing a practical method for routine moisture analysis. This testing is important for quality control because moisture content affects product stability, shelf-life, microbial growth, and processing characteristics. The method is widely used for ingredients and finished products where moisture specifications are critical for quality and safety.
