Abstract

A method determines the amount of the fluid content with a smaller specific gravity in an airtightly sealed flexible container containing contents with different specific gravities that are automatically separated from each other when held to a stationary state. The amount of said content is determined by externally applying pressure to the airtightly sealed flexible container to increase the inner pressure thereof and collecting data on the fluid content with the smaller specific gravity.
