Water activity 102: Microbial growth

Water activity is perhaps best known for its ability to prevent and control microbial growth. In this webinar, we'll dive into the details: How exactly water activity controls microbes, how to set the right specs or limits for your product or industry, what government regulations say about it, how hurdle technology works, and more. Want to learn more about water activity, moisture content, and how these measurements can make food, business, and life better?
