Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). 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 3.
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.
International Standard ISO 1737 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 34, Agricultural food products,
Subcommittee SC 5, Milk and milk products, in collaboration with the International Dairy Federation (IDF) and
AOAC International, and will also be published by these organizations.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 1737:1985), which has been technically revised.
Annexes A and B of this International Standard are for information only.

7 Sampling
Sampling is not part of the method specified in this International Standard. A recommended sampling method is
given in ISO 707.
It is important that the laboratory receive a sample which is truly representative and has not been damaged or
changed during transport or storage.
Store the samples at a temperature of between 2 °C and 6 °C from the time of sampling to the time of commencing
the procedure. In the case of samples in sealed cans, store the closed cans at a temperature below 20 °C.
8 Preparation of test sample
8.1 Evaporated milk
Shake and invert the sample container. Open the sample container and pour the sample slowly into a second
sample container (provided with an airtight lid). Mix by repeated transfer, taking care to incorporate in the sample
any fat or other constituent adhering to the wall and ends of the first container. Finally, transfer the product as
completely as possible to the second container.

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------

SIST EN ISO 1737:2000

ISO 1737:1999(E) ISO
If necessary in the case of samples in sealed cans, condition the unopened container in the water bath (6.5) set at a
temperature of between 40 °C and 60 °C. Remove and shake the can vigorously every 15 min. After 2 h, remove
the can and allow it to cool to room temperature.
Remove the lid entirely and thoroughly mix the sample by stirring with a spoon or spatula. (If fat separates, do not
test the sample.)
8.2 Sweetened condensed milk
Open the sample container and mix thoroughly with a spoon or spatula. Use an up-and-down rotary movement in
such a way that the top layers and the content of the lower corners of the container are moved and mixed. Take
care to incorporate in the sample any milk adhering to the wall and ends of the container. Transfer the sample as
completely as possible to a second sample container (provided with an airtight lid). Close the second container.
If necessary, in the case of samples in sealed cans, condition the unopened can in the water bath (6.5) at a
temperature of between 30 °C and 40 °C. Open the can, scrape out all milk adhering to the interior of the can,
transfer to a dish large enough to permit stirring thoroughly and mix until the whole mass is homogeneous.
In the case of a sample in a collapsible tube, open the tube and transfer the contents to a jar. Then cut open the
tube and scrape out all material adhering to the interior and add to the contents of the jar.
9 Procedure
NOTE An alternative procedure using fat-extraction tubes with siphon or wash-bottle fittings (see note in 6.6) is given in
annex B.
9.1 Test portion
Mix the test sample (clause 8), by stirring in the case of sweetened condensed milk, or by gently inverting the bottle
three or four times in the case of evaporated milk. Immediately weigh to the nearest 1 mg, directly or by difference,
4 g or 5 g of the test sample of evaporated milk, or 2,0 g to 2,5 g of the test sample of sweetened condensed milk in
a fat-extraction flask (6.6).
Transfer the test portion as completely as possible into the lower (small) bulb of the fat-extraction flask.
9.2 Blank tests
9.2.1 Blank test for method
Carry out a blank test simultaneously with the determination using the same procedure and same reagents, but
replacing the test portion by 10 ml of water (see A.2).
If the value obtained in the blank test regularly exceeds 1,0 mg, check the reagents if this has not been recently
done (9.2.2). Corrections of more than 2,5 mg should be mentioned in the test report.
9.2.2 Blank test for reagents
To test the quality of the reagents, carry out a blank test as specified in 9.2.1. Additionally use an empty fat-
collecting vessel, prepared as specified in 9.3, for mass control purposes. The reagents shall leave no residue
greater than 1,0 mg (see A.1).
If the residue of the complete reagent blank test is greater than 1,0 mg, determine the residue of the solvents
separately by distilling 100 ml of the diethyl ether (5.4) and light petroleum (5.5), respectively. Use an empty fat-
collecting vessel, prepared for control purposes as described above, to obtain the real mass of residue which shall
not exceed 1,0 mg.
Very occasionally, the solvents may contain volatile matter which is strongly retained in fat. If there are indications of
the presence of such substances, carry out blank tests on all the reagents and for each solvent using a fat-

ISO ISO 1737:1999(E)
collecting vessel with about 1 g of anhydrous butterfat. If necessary, redistil solvents in the presence of 1 g of
anhydrous butterfat per 100 ml of solvent. Use the solvents only shortly after the redistillation.
Replace unsatisfactory reagents, solvents, or redistil solvents.
9.3 Preparation of fat-collecting vessel
Dry a fat-collecting vessel (6.9) with a few boiling aids (6.10) in the oven (6.4) set at 102 °C for 1 h.
NOTE 1 Boiling aids are desirable to promote gentle boiling during the subsequent removal of solvents, especially when
using glass fat-collecting vessels; their use is optional with metal dishes.
Protect the fat-collecting vessel from dust and allow it to cool to the temperature of the weighing room (glass fat-
collecting vessel for at least 1 h, metal dish for at least 30 min).
NOTE 2 To avoid insufficient cooling or unduly long cooling times, the fat-collecting vessel should not be placed in a
desiccator.
Use tongs to place the fat-collecting vessel on the balance. Weigh the fat-collecting vessel to the nearest 1,0 mg.
NOTE 3 Tongs should preferably be used to avoid, in particular, temperature variations.
9.4 Determination
9.4.1  Carry out the determination without delay.
Add water at a temperature of about 50 °C to the test portion in the fat-extraction flask (9.1) to obtain a total volume
of 10 ml to 11 ml. Use the water to wash the test portion on to the bottom of the flask. Shake gently with slight
warming at about 50 °C in the waterbath (6.5) until the test portion is completely dispersed. Cool in running water to
room temperature.
9.4.2  Add 2 ml of ammonia solution (5.1) to the dispersed test portion in the fat-extraction flask (9.4.1), or a
