Protocols for measuring seed wt for immature corn kernels

Can someone give or point me to protocols for measuring seed wt
for immature corn kernels.

Particularly I am interested in what drying temperatures and times
are appropriate to end up with a resulting dry matter/kernel.

Using a typical grain moisture meter on partially dried kernels 20-
30 days before physiological maturity wouldn't work very well.
