Bulletin of the IDF N° 452/ 2011: Collaborative Study on Nitrate in Milk and Milk Products using a Method by Enzymatic Reduction and Photometric Determination after Griess Reaction (International Standard ISO 20541 | IDF 197)
An alternative method for determining the content of nitrate in milk and milk products that does not involve any reagent that can have a negative effect of the environment has been developed (ISO 20541 | IDF 197) and tested in an international interlaboratory study to establish its precision (repeatability and reproducibility). This report describes the […]
