A simple spectroturbidimetric method for the determination of the fat content of homogenized ice-cream mixes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 June 2009
Summary
A rapid spectroturbidimetric method for the determination of the fat content of homogenized ice-cream mixes using a simple filter absorptiometer has been devised. Turbidities are measured at two different wavelengths to allow for changes in the degree of homogenization. The standard deviation of the differences from the values obtained by the Werner-Schmid method was found to be 2·5% of the mean fat content value. The method also enables the mean fat globule diameter to be determined.
