Determination of Water Content of Butter Oil By Karl
Fischer Titration
Water content of butter oil has hitherto been determined
using an international standard method (ISO 5536 | IDF 23:2002)
for the Karl Fischer titration using chloroform (trichloromethane)
as additional solvent to methanol in the working medium. However,
it has been shown that 1-octanol can replace toxic chloroform.
The results of an international interlaboratory test of this
method are described, showing that the new method using 1-octanol
is equivalent to, or even better than, that using chloroform
in terms of accuracy and precision of the results and the
use of chemicals and titrators from different manufacturers
has no significant influence on the results.
Pages: 5. Price: 7 Euro.

Payment Systems for Ex-Farm Milk - E-Form
Compilation of information on the pricing systems used in
29 IDF member countries to allow comparison of the systems
used, based on the results of a questionnaire relating to
payment systems in use in the year 2003. Data relate to the
milk of cows but also buffaloes, sheep and goats for those
countries where milk from these animals is produced in commercial
quantities. Replies concern the basis for payment, the form
of regulation of the market, compositional criteria, hygiene
criteria, production practices, dairy farm assurance programmes
(including environmental issues and animal welfare), maximum
residue levels, frequency and mechanisms of payment, cooling,
transport and seasonality.

Comprehensive review of scientific literature pertaining to
nitrogen protein conversion factors
This IDF review of scientific literature shows that there
is substantial scientific evidence to support a specific nitrogen
protein conversion factor for specific sources of protein,
rather than to introduce a single inaccurate nitrogen protein
conversion factor, as has been envisaged in the revision of
the Codex Standard for Infant Formula.
