Conclusions:
In a relative density test, conducted according to OECD test guideline 109 and to GLP, a relative density of 1.386 and sample density of 1386 kg/m3 at 20°C were determined for Alfalfa ext.
Executive summary:

A pycnometer method, conducted according to OECD test guideline 109 and to GLP, was performed to determine the relative density of Alfalfa, ext.

The density was calculated from the difference in weight between the full and empty pycnometer and its known volume. The tests were run at a constant temperature of 20°C, and two measurements were performed.

A relative density of 1.386 and sample density of 1386 kg/m3 were determined for Alfalfa, ext.
