abstract: Densitometric classification of imbibed parsley seeds var. Olomunska was studied as a function of the imbibition’s time. The seed-solution mixture was titrated with 50% saccharose solution to obtain various densities of the liquid phase. Floating seeds were counted. Density distribution was measured from 1 to 24 hours after imbibition’s start. It was found that after first 8 hours density distribution remains stable.
