Interpretive Summary:

Technical Abstract: A method for determining water holding capacity (WHC) of pulse flours and protein materials has been developed and subjected to an interlaboratory study. Eleven participants analyzed twelve blind duplicates of six different samples in a collaborative study to evaluate the repeatability and reproducibility of the method. Statistical analysis of the collaborative data indicated that within-laboratory repeatability standard deviation (sr) was in the range of 0.018 and 0.083, and among-laboratory reproducibility standard deviation (sR) varied from 0.039 and 0.18. The within-laboratory relative standard deviation (RSDr) of samples ranged from 2.08 to 5.49%, and the among-laboratory relative standard deviation (RSDr) ranged from 4.99 to 7.49%. Results indicated that the method showed good repeatability and reproducibility.
