5.3. Determination of lactose content 
We recommend the following formulas: 
 
А/ for cow milk 
 
Lact. = SNF * 0,55 (% )
Where 
SNF 
– content of SNF in percentages (%),
0,55
– constant coefficient.
 
B/ for sheep milk 
Lact. = SNF* 0,45 (% )
Where 
SNF 
–solids-non-fat content in percentages (%),
0,45
– constant coefficient.
This is an actual coefficient for sheep breeds on the territory of the Balkan 
Peninsula. 
 
 
5.4. Determination of salts content 
We recommend using the following formulas: 
 
А/ for cow milk 
Salts = SNF* 0,083 (% )
Where 
SNF 
– solids-non-fat content in percentages (%),
0,083
– constant coefficient.
 
B/ for sheep milk 
 
Salts = SNF * 0,075 (% )
Where 
SNF 
– solids-non-fat content n percentages (%),
0,075
