    Hygroscopic water in sugarcane : final report 114
    (CSR, 1990) Mangion, MJ; Player, MR
    At the 1989 Workshop on Cane Analysis conducted by the Sugar Research Council it emerged that the best technical method of cane analysis for the Australian industry was the direct cane analysis method (DCA) employing the wet disintegrator technique. This method involves comminuting a sample of prepared cane with a weighed amount of water and then analysing the resultant liquid extract. The analysis of cane is determined by calculation, making allowance for the degree of dilution by the added water. This calculation also makes allowance for some water in sugar cane which is not available for solution of the dissolved substances in juice. This water is commonly referred to as bound water or hygroscopic water.
