Thermogravimetric Determination of Moisture and Ash

Water content in soil and plant tissue is an important parameter that can influence crop growth, yield, and quality. In addition, moisture plays an important role in commerce and storage of food products. Determination of ash in soil can be used to approximate the organic content of the soil. This webinar, presented by Jeffrey Gast, reviews the Thermogravimetric determination of moisture and ash in soil and plant tissue.
