摘要
Single particle levitation (SPL) is used to measure the sorption and desorption of water vapour from microparticles comprising of Bacillus spores, Water gain is determined from increases in the weight-balancing levitation voltages. Spore water isotherms are compared to values previously reported using bulk gravimetric methods. Two salient differences are found between the SPL and bulk data: (1) greater osmotic swelling is observed in the SPL data; and (2) the SPL data exhibit open loop hysteresis while bulk data exhibit closed loop hysteresis.
