Abstract
A method for determining sorption isotherms of food by inverse chromatography comprising the steps of passing a mobile phase having a known solute concentration and at a known flow rate through a stationary phase comprising a known mass of food at a known temperature, measuring the concentration of solute in the mobile phase leaving the food, determining the amount of solute which has entered the food at selected intervals from the known concentration, known flow rate and time elapsed from the beginning of the passing step, determining the amount of solute which has passed downstream of the food at selected intervals from the measurement of the concentration of the solute, and determining the amount of solute at selected intervals taken up by the food from the difference in the amounts determined above.
