ABSTRACT
Ambiguous depressions in fat tests were observed when milk samples were stored before testing by the Milko-Tester procedure. Fat-test depression was augmented by shipping and by chilling samples at the time of collection in an ice-water mixture. The effect was greatest in samples stored in 1-oz. plastic containers and in partially filled plastic bags. The fat-test depression was not significant in samples stored in glass bottles or in plastic containers receiving no refrigeration during the storage period.
ABSTRACT
Colloidal phosphate-free skim milk was subjected to gel filtration on Sepharose 4B. Lipolytic activity was observed in the membrane material eluted in the void volume fraction and in the protein fraction representing a broad range of molecular weights.
