8、o assess the capabilities of instrumental methods compared with accepted standard chemical methods. The purpose of Section 2 of this Standard is to provide a means by which the protein content of liquid milk from an instrumental method can be related to the results obtained by a standard chemical me
9、thod. When reporting results obtained by an instrumental test method, the analyst may quote that the instrument has been validated in accordance with this Standard. Section 3 of this Standard deals with the assessment of the performance of mid-infrared instruments for analyzing milk. This Standard m
10、akes no attempt to describe routine procedures for their operation; this is left to the manufacturers manual of instructions and regulatory or local requirements for calibration, with the expectation that good laboratory practice will be used. Further information on routine procedures for operation
11、of the instruments is also given in International Dairy Federation (IDF) Provisional Standard 141 (Ref. 1). The assumption is also made that the instruments are designed to operate on sound physical and chemical principles. While instrumental methods are less susceptible to operator bias, a rigid di
12、scipline of check procedures as described in the manufacturers manual is essential to ensure that the instrument functions at all times within its design limits.

17、Y. 1.3 ACCURACY UNCERTAINTY OF MEASUREMENT Estimate the uncertainty of test measurements based on the performance characteristics of the test method (trueness and precision), verification data, quality control data, previous experience or other relevant information. The appropriate degree of rigour
18、applied to estimation of uncertainty depends on the purpose of the test and customer (end-user) requirements. NOTES: 1An estimate of uncertainty is required when it is relevant to the validity or application of the test result or when requested by a customer. 2Unless otherwise required, the measurem
19、ent value should be stated together with the expanded uncertainty, calculated using a coverage factor of 2, to give a level of confidence of approximately 95%. 3The measurement value and its uncertainty should both be reported in the same units, the measurement value rounded to be consistent with it
20、s uncertainty. 4The form of reporting the result must not give a wrong impression of the uncertainty.

21、dure for evaluating the suitability of an individual instrument for measuring protein in liquid milk. NOTE: This is intended for instruments with multi-component capability such as those that can also determine fat and lactose. However, the Section does not validate the instruments capabilities for
22、measuring analytes other than protein. 2.2 APPLICATION The procedure is applicable to all instruments capable of analysing for both crude and true protein (see Clause 2.3) in liquid milk. It is intended to verify that an instrument is capable of performing a single analysis on a sample of milk to pr
23、oduce a result of comparable precision and accuracy to that obtained when the protein content of the milk is estimated from the nitrogen content, determined by the reference Kjeldahl method set out in AS 2300.1.2.1. 2.3 DEFINITIONS For the purpose of this Standard, the following definitions apply. 2
24、.3.1 Crude protein The total nitrogen content of the sample multiplied by the factor 6.38. 2.3.2 True protein The total nitrogen content of the sample minus the non-protein nitrogen content and multiplied by the factor 6.38. NOTE: The total nitrogen and non-protein nitrogen contents are determined b
25、y the methods set out in AS 2300.1.2.2. 2.4 PRINCIPLE After the instrumental performance checks, adjustments and calibrations have been carried out according to the manufacturers instructions, suitable samples of milk of the type to be analysed are measured for protein content by both the instrument
26、 and the reference Kjeldahl procedure. The results of both methods are compared by a defined statistical procedure. The conformance of the instrument is judged by defined criteria. 2.5 TEST SAMPLES Samples used in the comparison should be of the type to be measured. They should be prepared as descri
27、bed by the manufacturer for the particular instrument, and as appropriate for Kjeldahl analysis. 2.6 COMPARISON OF INSTRUMENT WITH REFERENCE METHOD 2.6.1 General It is essential that all steps in the procedure are carried out on the same day. It must be known that the instrument is performing correc
28、tly before its accuracy is assessed. Accessed by UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA on 03 Apr 2009 5 AS 2300.1.82008 www.standards.org.au Standards Australia 2.6.2 Instrument performance checks Before calibrating the instrument, checks of zero settings, linearity, purging efficiency and repeatability are
29、 performed. Make any adjustments necessary for correct performance of the instrument according to the manufacturers instructions. NOTE: Appendix A gives recommended methods for checking repeatability and purging efficiency. 2.6.3 Instrument calibration Calibrate the instrument according to the manuf
30、acturers instructions using milk samples of the type to be measured. 2.6.4 Comparative analyses The procedure shall be as follows: (a)Analyse in duplicate a set of at least eight prepared samples covering the range of protein content normally measured, using the reference Kjeldahl method set out in
31、AS 2300.1.2.1. Use the same procedures as those used to obtain the reference values with which the instrument is calibrated. (b)Analyse the samples by the instrumental method, in ascending order of protein content. Repeat the instrumental analysis in descending order of protein content. NOTES: 1The
32、first test (possibly more) made with the instrument after a rest period may give an incorrect result. 2The first test (possibly more) made with the instrument after it has been used for a sample with a widely different protein content, may give a result that is biased towards that of the previous sa
33、mple. 3More accurate results can be obtained with the instrument by repeating the tests on a sample until there is no drift in the readings, and by then taking the average of a number of subsequent readings. 2.7 CALCULATIONS 2.7.1 Mean difference Calculate the mean difference (MD) between reference
34、and instrument results as follows: n D MD = . . . 2.7(1) where D= the difference between the average reference result and each single instrument result for each of the samples tested n= the number of instrument tests 2.7.2 Standard deviation Calculate the standard deviation of difference between ref
35、erence and instrument results SD(diff) from the following equation: SD(diff) = () 1 2 n MDDD . . . 2.7(2) where D, n and MD are shown in Clause 2.7.1.

41、Y S I S O F M I L K 3.1 SCOPE This Section sets out a procedure for evaluating the suitability of a mid-infrared spectrometric instrument for quantitatively determining fat, protein and lactose in liquid milks. NOTES: 1The procedure may be used to assess a new instrument or an instrument after major
42、 repair, or for comparing instruments. 2The evaluation is based on a group of performance tests similar to those published in the Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC) Official Methods of Analysis (Ref. 2). 3Mid-infrared instruments are usually suitable for testing whole milk, skimmed a
43、nd partially skimmed milk, homogenized milk and modified milk. Some instruments are also suitable for testing cream directly. 4The instrument may also provide an estimated solids-not-fat (SNF) content by assigning a value for the minerals content, obtained by experiment, and adding the sum of the me
44、asured protein and lactose contents. 3.2 PRINCIPLE Suitable samples of milk, of the type used for calibration (but not the same samples), are analysed for fat, protein and lactose content by appropriate reference chemical methods. The same samples are analysed by the instrument, which measures the q
45、uantity of radiation absorbed by the following: (a)For fat determinationthe carbonyl bonds of the glyceryl esters at approximately 5.73 m (A Filter) or the C-H bonds at approximately 3.48 m (B Filter). (b)For protein determinationthe secondary amide groups of the peptide bonds at approximately 6.46
46、m. (c)For lactose determinationthe hydroxyl groups of lactose at approximately 9.61 m. The results of both analyses are compared by a defined statistical procedure. The conformance of the instrument is judged against defined criteria. 3.3 FACTORS AFFECTING THE ACCURACY OF ANALYSES 3.3.1 Instrumental
47、 factors 3.3.1.1 Linearity The linearity of the instruments responses to a range of analyte concentrations should be checked according to the manufacturers instructions before calibration checks and adjustments are made. The following procedures are recommended: (a)For fatuse eight dilutions of homo
48、genized low-fat cream or whole milk concentrate, which have been accurately made on a mass/mass basis using skim milk as the diluent. (b)For proteinuse eight dilutions of skim-milk concentrate. (c)For lactoseuse a solution of lactose monohydrate of a concentration corresponding to the desired upper
49、limit of instrument reading (usually 50 g/L is suitable), diluted to provide eight solutions. Accessed by UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA on 03 Apr 2009 AS 2300.1.82008 8 Standards Australia www.standards.org.au Concentrations of the dilutions used should be evenly distributed from zero to the desired upper limits of instrument readings. If the response is not linear, the instrument should be adjusted in accordance with the manufacturers instructions. 3.3.1.2 Purging
