5.2. For sheep milk
Determination of fat content – Gerber’s method, described in Methods p. 3.4. 
Density determination – using aerometer, described in Methods p. 3.3. 
SNF determination – by formula – p. 3.2.3.1.B 
Determination of Lactose content – by formula – p. 3.2.3.2.А 
Determination of solids/salts content – by formula – p. 3.2.3.3.А 
Total protein content determination – by formula – p. 3.2.3.4.А 
 
Example: Determination of the quality parameters for two samples sheep 
milk (low fat and high fat), obtained and prepared according p. 2.3.1 and 
2.4.1. 
First – determine the fat content in the samples, using the Gerber’s method 
(p.3.2.) 
Suppose that for the first sample the result is 5,6 %М, for the second – 9,8 
%М. 
 
Second – determine the milk density, using aerometer (p.3.1.) 
Suppose that the results are 1,0352 for the first sample and 1,0300 
for the second 
Third – Calculate the SNF content using the formula (p.3.2.3.1.B) 
 
 
 
 
 
Fourth – determine the lactose content by the formula (p.3.2.3.2.А) 
 
Lact. = SNF * 0,45 = 10.11 * 0.45 = 4.55 % 
Lact. = SNF * 0,45 = 9.65 * 0.45 = 4.34 % 
Fifth – determine the solids content by formula (p.3.2.3.3.А / 
Solids = SNF * 0,075 = 10.11 * 0.075 = 0.76 % 
Solids. = SNF * 0,075 = 9.65 * 0.075 = 0.72 % 
Sixth – determine the total protein content by formula (p.3.2.3.4.А) 
Proteins = SNF * 0,475 = 10.11 * 0.475 = 4.80 % 
Proteins = SNF * 0,475 = 9.65 * 0,475 = 4.58 %
