Description
Summary:The main idea of this paper is to review and present the papers in which sorption isotherms of different types of materials were determined. For this purpose, the number of publications, references, etc., in the most frequently used journals for publications of sorption isotherms papers were studied. In order to obtain clear picture what is realistic to expect from the scientific investigation in fields of determination of sorption isotherms for different materials in the near future and where future research should be focused, some statistical analysis were made. The papers have been classified into nine categories: I. Papers in which determination of sorption isotherms of fruits are performed; II. Vegetables; III. Tea, Herbs, Coffee and Tobacco; IV. Pistachio nuts, Almond, Soybeans and Cereals; V. Flour, Pasta and Powder milk; VI. Meat and Fish; VII. Foodstuffs; VIII. Wood, Paper and Clay and IX. Pharmaceutical materials. From the performed analysis it was concluded that the categories of papers 'Foodstuffs ', 'Fruits ', 'Pistachio nuts, Almond, Soybean and Cereals ', 'Vegetables ' and 'Flour, Pasta and Powder milk' comprise 75.6% of the published referent papers. The remaining categories of papers for 'Tea, Herbs, Coffee and Tobacco', 'Meat and Fish', Wood, Paper and Clay ' and 'Pharmaceutical materials ', are 24.4% of the referent papers. For this reason, future research should be focused of determination of sorption isotherms of these materials.
