Summary

While using an acid degree value test during work on lipolysis in milk, difficulty was encountered in extracting the fat from the milk of certain cows, especially milk of high butterfat content and milk from newly calved cows. This difficulty was overcome by increasing the quantity of reagent used. A study was made of the quantities of reagent required for milks of different butterfat content and for colostrum. No effect on the acid degree value occurred as a result of increasing the quantity of reagent. A modification of the test is recommended, using an increased quantity of reagent.
