Sl. Duce et Ld. Hall, VISUALIZATION OF THE HYDRATION OF FOOD BY NUCLEAR-MAGNETIC-RESONANCE IMAGING, Journal of food engineering, 26(2), 1995, pp. 251-257
The hydration of butter bean, rigatoni pasta and a snack food was visu
alised non-invasively by NMR imaging. The rate at which water is absor
bed into the samples and the changes that result were observed. The re
lationship between the intensify of the image signal and water content
was also investigated.
