The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.

The method was developed and optimized to provide results that agree well with results of the method described in ISO 17997-1IDF 29-1 when both are applied to fresh raw bovine milk. No collaborative study data were available for this method when publishing its equivalent, IDF 29:1964. Recent research has been completed to develop the better defined indirect reference method given in ISO 17997-1IDF 29-1, and this routine method for the direct measurement of the casein-nitrogen content of milk. Both methods have been collaboratively studied and a reference to the obtained precision data is included in each part.

This standard does not purport to address all the safety risks associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of local regulatory limitations prior to use. 1 Scope This part of ISO 17997IDF 29 specifies a routine method for the direct determination of the casein-nitrogen content of bovine milk. The method can be modified for milk from other species or liquid dairy products. NOTE Casein nitrogen will decrease with milk storage time due to casein breakdown even at 4 °C. The casein nitrogen of heat-treated milk will be artificially high because of whey-protein denaturation. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

The precipitated milk casein is separated by filtration. The filtrate will contain the non-casein-nitrogen components. The nitrogen content of the precipitate is determined by the procedure described in either ISO 8968-1IDF 20-1 or ISO 8968-2IDF 20-2. 5 Reagents Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and glass-distilled water or water of at least equivalent purity. 5.1 Reagents for determination of total nitrogen. Use the reagents specified in ISO 8968-1IDF 20-1 or ISO 8968-2IDF 20-2. 5.2 Acetic acid solution, c(CH3CO2H) = 1,75 mol/l. Using a volumetric pipette (6.5), add 10,0 ml of glacial acetic acid in a 100 ml volumetric flask (6.3). Dilute to the mark with water. 5.3 Sodium acetate solution, c(CH3CO2Na) = 1 mol/l. Dissolve 8,20 g of sodium acetate or 13,60 g of sodium acetate trihydrate in water in a 100 ml volumetric flask (6.3). Dilute to the mark with water. The sodium acetate solution may be stored at room temperature for one week or at between 0 °C and 4 °C for 6 months. 5.4 Buffer solution. Using a volumetric pipette (6.5), add 1,0 ml of acetic acid solution (5.2) to a 100 ml volumetric flask (6.3). Using another volumetric pipette, add 1,0 ml of sodium acetate solution (5.3) to the flask. Dilute to the mark with water. 6 Apparatus Usual laboratory equipment and, in particular, the following. 6.1 Apparatus for determination of total nitrogen. Use that specified in ISO 8968-1IDF 20-1 or ISO 8968-2IDF 20-2. 6.2 Water bath, capable of maintaining a temperature of 38 °C to 40 °C. 6.3 One-mark volumetric flasks, with stoppers, of capacity 100 ml, conforming to ISO 1042:1998, class A. 6.4 Bottle-top dispensers, capable of delivering 70 ml of water and 30 ml of buffer solution (5.4), respectively. 6.5 One-mark volumetric pipettes, of capacity 1 ml, 10 ml and 50 ml, conforming to ISO 648:1977, class A. 6.6 Filter funnel, made of glass or plastic, of diameter 75 mm.

Pleat before use. 6.8 Analytical balance, capable of weighing to the nearest 0,1 mg. 6.9 Automatic pipettor or adjustable micropipette, capable of delivering 0,75 ml. 7 Sampling It is important that the laboratory receive a sample which is truly representative and has not been damaged or changed during transport or storage. Sampling is not part of the method specified in this part of ISO 17997IDF 29. A recommended sampling method is given in ISO 707. 8 Preparation of test sample Warm the test sample in the water bath (6.2) set at between 38 °C and 40 °C to melt the milk fat so that a representative test portion of milk can be removed from the sample. Gently mix the sample immediately prior to removal and weighing of the test portion (9.1). 9 Procedure 9.1 Test portion Weigh, to the nearest 0,1 mg, approximately 5 g of the prepared test sample (Clause 8) directly into a Kjeldahl flask or digestion tube (6.1) or determine the difference between the mass of a small container containing approximately 5 g of test sample and the mass of the container after the test portion is poured into the flask or tube. Immediately add 70 ml of water, preheated to 38 °C, using the bottle-top dispenser (6.4), while rinsing down any test sample remaining on the inside neck into the bottom of the flask or tube. Additional test samples may be weighed and water added at this point. However, care shall be taken to finish step 9.2.2 within 30 min after adding the test portion into the Kjeldahl flask or digestion tube. NOTE This 30-min time limit is to minimize proteolytic degradation of casein during sample preparation. 9.2 Determination 9.2.1 Using an automatic pipettor or adjustable micropipette (6.9), add 0,75 ml of acetic acid solution (5.2) to the Kjeldahl flask or digestion tube (9.1), taking care to avoid getting acetic acid solution on the neck of the flask or the tube. Swirl to mix and allow to stand at room temperature for 10 min. Using an automatic pipettor or adjustable micropipette (6.9), add 0,75 ml of sodium acetate solution (5.3) to the Kjeldahl flask or digestion tube. Again swirl to mix and let the precipitate settle for 10 min. Pour the contents of the Kjeldahl flask or digestion tube through a filter funnel (6.6) containing pleated filter paper (6.7) to collect the filtrate. Some of the precipitate will remain in the Kjeldahl flask or digestion tube and some on the filter paper. It is not necessary to remove all the precipitate from the flask or tube. Filter completely before the next pour. 1) Whatman No. 1 is an example of a product available commercially.

Also use the buffer solution to rinse any precipitate from the neck of the flask or tube down into the bottom. Swirl to mix the contents. Afte
