BUTYROMETRIC DETERMINATION
OF FAT CONTENT ACCORDING
TO GERBER’S METHOD
by graduate chemist Alfred Toepel
PRINCIPLES OF THE METHOD
APPLICATION
CHEMICALS NEEDED
Milk fat is lighter than water and creams if it is left standing. A fat-rich layer accumu-
lates on the surface. Stirring and careful shaking restore the original distribution.
Foam breaks the fat globule coating. The milk may begin to turn into butter when stirred
and uniform distribution of fat is no longer possible.
The fat liquefies at 35-40° and the distribution process is speeded up.
The volumeters are calibrated at 20°C. Any variations in temperature will influence the
volume. Air pockets reduce the density and hence the mass of milk measured.
CONDUCTING A TEST = WORK PROCEDURES
When the Gerber method was first introduced, 11.0 ml of milk were used.
By reducing the quantity of milk 10.75 ml, the determined fat content more
closely matches the results of the reference method. If the butyrometer
neck is wetted with milk, residues may cling to it.
A clear dividing line between the acid and the milk, without a brownish-
coloured edge, is the sign of good layering.
Due to the low density of amyl alcohol, the two liquids do not mix.
As a rule, the lower end of the stopper comes into contact with the liquid.

pH VALUE MEASUREMENT
Anna Politis, graduate engineer of nutrition technology and of biotechnology, reports
To clean off fat or oil deposits, the membrane must be degreased with cotton which has
been soaked in acetone or soap solution.
If protein has settled on the diaphragm, the electrode is soaked in HCI/Pepsin solution for
approx. 1-2 hours.
To remove inorganic films, the electrode is dipped into 0.1 M HCl or 0.1 M NaOH. With
40-50°C solutions, cleaning is more effective.
After every cleaning procedure, the electrode is to be set in a 3M KCl solution about a
quarter of an hour a new conditioning and subsequently calibrated once again.

FREEZING POINT DETERMINATION
K. Schaefer, graduate engineer, W. Spindler, graduate physician report
HISTORY
The German chemist Beckmann, known for the thermometer named after him, began
using the freezing point of milk in as early as 1895 to detect if it had been adulterated
with water. The American Hortvet worked intensively with this method in 1920 and im-
proved some of its essential features. The first thermistor cyroscopes were brought
to the market in the 1960s. However, they had to be operated entirely by hand. At the
beginning of the 1970s, the first automatic thermistor cyroscopes became available.
With this development it was possible to determine the freezing point automatically at
the push of a button.
