Comparison of Low-Cost Methods for Soil Water Holding Capacity

Optical Prediction of Water-Holding Capacity

The pH of meat has a strong effect on both light scattering (paleness) and water-holding capacity (WHC), using WHC imprecisely as a general term to describe fluid distribution and retention. Light scattering has many attributes in meat (in relation to wavelength, direction and polarization), and is easier to measure on a routine basis than pH. Thus, the indirect correlation of light scattering ...

Water-Holding Capacity of Fresh Meat

Water-holding capacity of fresh meat (ability to retain inherent water) is an important property of fresh meat as it affects both the yield and the quality of the end product. This characteristic can be described in several ways, but in fresh products that have not been extensively processed, it is often described as drip loss or purge. The mechanism by which drip or purge is lost from meat is ...

Effects of iranian petoleum mulches on some physical properties of a calcareous soil,I.aggregate stability and water holding capacity

Water addition, evaporation and water holding capacity of poultry litter.

Litter moisture content has been related to ammonia, dust and odour emissions as well as bird health and welfare. Improved understanding of the water holding properties of poultry litter as well as water additions to litter and evaporation from litter will contribute to improved litter moisture management during the meat chicken grow-out. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how manageme...
