Abstract

989, 617. Infra-red analysis. NATIONAL RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION. Jan. 17, 1962 [Jan. 27, 1961; June 22, 1961], Nos. 3308/61 and 22692/61. Heading G1A. The invention relates to an infra-red absorption method of estimating the amount of a substance suspended in an emulsion or suspension and is described with particular reference to the determination of the fat content of milk. An extension of the method enables the protein and lactose content of milk to be determined also. The method depends on making the particle size of substantially all of the disperse phase sufficiently small for the scattering effect to be small relative to the absorption effect. It is suggested that the particle size should be reduced by known methods of homogenisation to a point where the mean particle diameter is not greater than one third of the wavelength of the investigating infra-red radiation. Use of a suitable peak absorption wavelength for the substance under investigation then enables the amount present to be determined by transmissivity measurement. In the case of milk the aqueous medium is partially transparent to infrared radiation in the ranges 3.5 to 5.8 Á and 6.5 to 10.5 Á but its absorption is such as to make it desirable to restrict the radiation path length in the milk to the range 10 to 100 Á Milk shows absorption bonds at 5. 8, 6.5 and 9.6 Á due to the fat, protein, and lactose constituents respectively; there are also interaction coefficients due to the amount of the two of these not being directly investigated because they displace water molecules and differ in absorption therefrom. Apparatus suitable for carrying out the method is briefly described and comprises a standard double beam infra-red spectrometer having cells with calcium fluoride windows and a path-length of 54 Á The sample is passed through the homogeniser 1 to the sample cell 2 and the cell 3 contains dispersion medium only. Infra-red radiation passes through the cells to monochromator 5 which directs the peak-absorption wavelength bands of the respective components of the disperse phase to appropriately placed devices 6, 7, 8 giving an indication or record of the amount of each present.
