In the dinosaur ages moisture analysis was performed using a vacuum or air oven and balance. It was a time consuming task starting with weighing the initial sample on a laboratory balance to record the starting weight. Then the sample was placed in the oven anywhere from 1 hour up to 18 hours. During this drying time the lab technician was required to check the sample after every 1 hour until a constant weight was recorded. When the weight is constant the moisture is gone.
To calculate the percent moisture for a sample/material.
a) Place a small container on your balance and tare the balance to subtract the weight of container.
b) Weigh 10 g of the material into the container.
c) Dry the sample for 24 hours in a 105-110° C oven.
d) Reweigh the sample and determine the moisture content using the following equation:
Mn = ((Ww-Wd)/Ww)
x 100
in which:
Mn = moisture content (%) of material n
WW = wet weight of the sample, and
Wd = weight of the sample after drying.
We offer Moisture Analyzers from Sartorius, Mettler Toledo, Ohaus, A&D and Adam Lab for moisture content analysis. Great prices on moisture analyzer disposable sample pans or glass fiber pads.

Sartorius MA35 FDA Moisture Analyzer
Sartorius MA35-FDA has all the features of the Sartorius MA35 moisture balance except the glass window in the hood of the moisture analyzer has been replaced with aluminum blanks. Most people purchase the standard MA35 with the glass window since it allows them to watch the drying process but glass is not allowed on the production floor of most food plants. This MA35-FDA version meets the strict guidelines of the FDA and HACCP in the cases where glass is prohibited.If you already have this moisture balance, and are looking for the disposable moisture pans we offer 500 aluminum moisture analyzer pans at ridiculous low prices here
