ABSTRACT

Standardizing the Babcock test for milk by increasing the volume of the sample and eliminating the meniscus on the fat column is simple, fundamentally sound and accurate as indicated by comparisons with the Mojonnier method on 135 samples of unpreserved milk by five experienced laboratory technicians. It is the judgment of the Committee that the modified Babcock method is better than the method now in use.

FOOTNOTES

1 Chairman and members, respectively, of Subcommittee in the Manufacturing Section of the American Dairy Science Association, to Standardize the Babeock Test for milk fat to agree with the Mojonnier method.
