It is often used to measure the dryness enduring ability of the microorganisms.
By measuring the water activity of food and selecting reasonable packing and storage methods, the use of preservatives can be reduced and the shelf life of food, grain and fruits and vegetables can be judged.
Please note:
This meter is calibrated by factory, users do not need to calibrate again, just input samples and test which is very simple.
