Extract

An apparatus has been developed for the routine estimation of oxygen in the headspace gas of tins of dried milk. The sampling device is an integral part of the apparatus, which is constructed mainly of metal and is simple to operate. As many as twenty samples may be taken and analysed in an hour.

Our thanks are due to the Drawing Office and Workshop staffs of the Division of Industrial Chemistry, Council for Scientific and Industrial Research, who designed and manufactured the equipment, and to the Maffra Co-operative Milk Products Co. Ltd., who permitted the apparatus to be tested in their laboratories under factory conditions.
