Dried milk and dried milk products — Determination of fat
content — Gravimetric method (Reference method)
WARNING — The use of this International Standard may involve hazardous materials, operations and
equipment. This International Standard does not purport to address all the safety problems associated
with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this International Standard to establish safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the reference method for the determination of the fat content of dried
milk and dried milk products. The method is also applicable to dried milk with a fat content of 40 % mass
fraction or more, dried whole, dried partially skimmed, and dried skimmed milk, dried whey, dried buttermilk
and dried butter serum.
The method is not applicable when the powder contains hard lumps which do not dissolve in ammonia
solution or free fatty acids in significant quantities.
NOTE When the powder contains hard lumps which do not dissolve in ammonia solution or contains free fatty acids
in significant quantities, noticeable by a distinct smell, the result of the determination will be too low. With such products, a
[3]
method using the Weibull-Berntrop principle is suitable (see ISO 8262-3⎪IDF 124-3 ).

4 Principle
An ammoniacal ethanolic solution of a test portion is extracted with diethyl ether and light petroleum. The
solvents are removed by distillation or evaporation. The mass of the substances extracted is determined.
NOTE This is usually known as the Röse-Gottlieb principle.
5 Reagents
Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade, unless otherwise specified, and only distilled or
demineralized water or water of equivalent purity.
The reagents shall leave no appreciable residue when the determination is carried out by the method
specified (see 9.2.2).
5.1 Ammonia solution, containing a mass fraction of NH of approximately 25 % (ρ = 910 g/l).
3 20
NOTE If ammonia solution of this concentration is not available, a more concentrated solution of known concentration
may be used (see 9.4.2).
5.2 Ethanol (C H OH), or ethanol denatured by methanol, containing a volume fraction of ethanol of at
2 5
least 94 %. (See Clause A.5.)
5.3 Congo red solution.
Dissolve 1 g of Congo red (C H N Na O S ) in water in a 100 ml one-mark volumetric flask (6.14). Make
32 22 6 2 6 2
up to the mark with water.
NOTE The use of this solution, which allows the interface between the solvent and aqueous layers to be seen more
clearly, is optional (see 9.4.4). Other aqueous indicator solutions can be used provided that they do not affect the result of
the determination.
5.4 Diethyl ether (C H OC H ), free from peroxides (see Clause A.3), containing no more than 2 mg/kg of
2 5 2 5
antioxidants, and complying with the requirements for the blank test (see 9.2.2, Clauses A.1 and A.4).
WARNING — The use of diethyl ether can lead to hazardous situations. Observe current safety
precautions for handling, use, and disposal.
5.5 Light petroleum, with any boiling range between 30 °C and 60 °C or, as equivalent, pentane
(CH [CH ] CH ) with a boiling point of 36 °C and complying with the requirements for the blank test (see
3 2 3 3
9.2.2, Clauses A.1 and A.4).
The use of pentane is recommended because of its higher purity and consistent quality.
5.6 Mixed solvent.
Shortly before use, mix equal volumes of diethyl ether (5.4) and light petroleum (5.5).
6 Apparatus
WARNING — Since the determination involves the use of volatile flammable solvents, all electrical
apparatus employed shall comply with legislation relating to the hazards in using such solvents.
Usual laboratory equipment and, in particular, the following.
6.1 Analytical balance, capable of weighing to the nearest 1 mg, with a readability of 0,1 mg.

8 Preparation of test sample
Thoroughly mix the test sample by repeatedly rotating and inverting the sample container. If necessary,
transfer all of the test sample to an airtight container of approximately twice the volume of the test sample to
allow this operation to be carried out.
9 Procedure
NOTE 1 If it is required to check whether the repeatability limit (11.2) is met, carry out two single determinations in
accordance with 9.1 to 9.4.
NOTE 2 An alternative procedure using fat-extraction tubes with siphon or wash-bottle fittings (see Note to 6.6) is given
in Annex B.
9.1 Test portion
Mix the test sample (Clause 8) by gently stirring or rotating and inverting the container several times.
Immediately weigh, to the nearest 1 mg, directly or by difference, in a fat-extraction flask (6.6), one of the
following test portions:
a) about 1,000 g of dried high-fat milk, of dried whole milk or of dried butter serum;
b) about 1,500 g of dried partially skimmed milk;
c) about 1,500 g of dried skimmed milk;
d) about 1,500 g of dried whey;
e) about 1,500 g of dried buttermilk.
Transfer the test portion as completely as possible into the lower (small) bulb of the fat-extraction flask.
9.2 Blank tests
9.2.1 Blank test for method
Carry out a blank test simultaneously with the determination using the same procedure and the same
reagents, but replacing the dispersed test portion in 9.4.1 by 10 ml of water (see Clause A.2).
When one blank sample is used for a batch of test samples of which the individual samples may not have
exactly the same conditions, ensure that the procedure for obtaining the value of the blank used in the
calculation of the result corresponds exactly to that of the individual test sample.
If the value obtained in the blank test regularly exceeds 1,0 mg, check the reagents if this has not been
recently done (9.2.2). Corrections of more than 2,5 mg should be mentioned in the test report.
9.2.2 Blank test for reagents
To test the quality of the reagents, carry out a blank test as specified in 9.2.1. Additionally, use an empty fat-
collecting vessel, prepared as specified in 9.3, for mass control purposes. The reagents shall leave no residue
greater than 1,0 mg (see Clause A.1).
If the residue of the complete reagent blank test is greater than 1,0 mg, determine the residue of the solvents
separately by distilling 100 ml of the diethyl ether (5.4) and light petroleum (5.5), respectively. Use an empty
fat-collecting vessel, prepared for control purposes as in the preceding paragraph, to obtain the real mass of
residue which shall not exceed 1,0 mg.

SIST EN ISO 1736:2009
ISO 1736:2008(E)
IDF 9:2008(E)
Very occasionally, the solvents may contain volatile matter which is strongly retained in fat. If there are
indications of the presence of such substances, carry out blank tests on all the reagents and for each solvent
using a fat-collecting vessel with about 1 g of anhydrous butterfat. If necessary, redistil solvents in the
presence of 1 g of anhydrous butterfat per 100 ml of solvent. Use the solvents only shortly after the
redistillation.
Replace unsatisfactory reagents and solvents, or redistil solvents.
9.3 Preparation of fat-collecting vessel
Dry a fat-collecting vessel (6.9) with a few boiling aids (6.10) in the oven (6.4) maintained at 102 °C for 1 h.
NOTE 1 Boiling aids are desirable to promote gentle boiling during the subsequent removal of solvents, especially
when using glass fat-collecting vessels; their use is optional with metal dishes.
Protect the fat-collecting vessel from dust and allow it to cool to the temperature of the weighing room (glass
fat-collecting vessel for at least 1 h; metal dish for at least 30 min).
To avoid insufficient cooling or unduly long cooling times, the fat-collecting vessel should not be placed in a
desiccator.
Use tongs (6.13) to place the fat-collecting vessel on the balance. Weigh the fat-collecting vessel to the
nearest 1,0 mg.
NOTE 2 The use of tongs effectively avoids, in particular, inducing temperature variations.
9.4 Determination
9.4.1 Carry out the determination without delay.
Add about 10 ml of preheated water at a temperature of 65 °C ± 5 °C to the test portion in the fat-extraction
flask (9.1) to obtain a total volume of 10 ml to 11 ml. Use the water to wash the test portion into the small bulb
of the fat-extraction flask. Mix thoroughly with the test portion in the small bulb until the test portion is
completely dispersed.
9.4.2 Add 2 ml of ammonia solution (5.1) to the test portion (9.4.1), or an equivalent volume of a more
concentrated ammonia solution (see Note to 5.1). Mix thoroughly with the test portion in the small bulb of the
fat-extraction flask.
9.4.3 Heat the flask to 65 °C ± 5 °C in the water bath (6.5) for 15 min to 20 min with occasional shaking.
Cool in running water to room temperature.
9.4.4 Add 10 ml of ethanol (5.2). Mix gently but thoroughly by allowing the contents of the fat-extraction
flask to flow backwards and forwards between the small and large bulb. Avoid bringing the liquid too near to
the neck of the flask. If desired, add 2 drops of the Congo red solution (5.3).
9.4.5 Add 25 ml of diethyl ether (5.4). Close the fat-extraction flask with a cork bung saturated with water or
with a stopper of other material wetted with water (6.6). Shake the flask vigorously, but not excessively, for
1 min to avoid the formation of persistent emulsions.
While shaking, keep the fat-extraction flask in a horizontal position with the small bulb extending upwards,
periodically allowing the liquid to run from the large bulb into the small bulb. If necessary, cool the flask in
running water to about room temperature. Carefully remove the bung or stopper and rinse it and the neck of
the flask with a little mixed solvent (5.6). Use the wash bottle (6.8) so that the rinsings run into the flask.
9.4.6 Add 25 ml of the light petroleum (5.5). Close the fat-extraction flask with the rewetted (by dipping into
water) bung or stopper. Mix gently again for 30 s as specified in 9.4.4. Proceed with shaking as specified in
9.4.5.
