Extract

It has been shown that the lactose concentration in separated milk can be determined rapidly with an accuracy of ±1·5% by infra-red absorption methods, using wavelengths in the 10μ region.

The method can also be used to determine lactose in condensed whey and should prove applicable to continuous recording techniques.
