Abstract
Wheat flake biscuits of known moisture and lipid contents were studied by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imagining (MRI) to determine whet her the moisture content of these low moisture samples could be measur ed by this technique. The water and lipid components of the observed N MR image signal were assigned from a H-1 relaxation study. A serial im aging study of the baking of a wheat flake biscuit mapped the spatial and temporal changes in moisture content across the biscuit during bak ing and resting.
