Why is water activity so important?
In the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries, water activity is a far more meaningful parameter than pure water content. The aw value defines the freely available water in a product. This unbound water is the basis for the growth of microorganisms (bacteria, yeasts, molds) and has a significant influence:
-
Shelf life: preventing spoilage and microbiological growth.
-
The texture and taste: avoid clumping of powders or drying out of creams.
-
Chemical stability: Minimizing the degradation processes of drugs and active ingredients.
