Hi Charles,

Thank you for your immediate response..

I would also like to get this opportune to ask if you have knowledge regarding the microbial growth through moisture content determination?

Previously during school we were taught that Aw is is more critical to microbial growth than moisture content..currently i work in a chocolate factory and the in-house laboratory tests for moisture using sartorious moisture analyzer. basically i would like to support/justify that moisture content is irrelevant to ensure microbial growth, hence; we need to purchase a device which measures Aw.

But in the case that they wouldn't agree to purchase Aw measuring device, i need a literature supporting that determining or maintaining a certain moisture content amount is enough to prevent microbial growth in our products.

Looking forward to your assistance.

Adrian
