ABSTRACT
Druge, F. Two Short Researches on Milk. Lait, vol. 12, 1922, p. 101-103.
- The effect of chloroform and toluol on rennet coagulation: Fresh morning's milk was placed into sterile Erlenmeyer flasks. To one sample was added chloroform at the rate of 14 grains per liter, to the second toluol at the same rate and the third was left without any addition. Each sample then received 1 mgm. of rennet per 100 cc. of milk and was held at a temperature of 34 to 35°. Complete firm coagulation took place in 122, 92 and 87 minutes respectively. Chloroform therefore inhibited rennet coagulation more than toluol.
- The effect of chloroform and toluol on the spontaneous coagulation of cows' milk: One row of samples remained at 18°, the other at 5°. Chloroform plainly, inhibited the action of the lactic acid bacteria; toluol less so. Milk may be kept five days by the addition of chloroform and the application of cold without increasing the acidity.—Matouschek (Vienna).
