IBEX SCIENCES supplies specialized Milk Butyrometers used for testing milk fat content from their main science depot in Lahore, Pakistan. [1]
These calibrated glass tubes are crucial tools for quality control across dairy labs, farms, and milk collection centers in the country. They are primarily used to run the Gerber Method, which physically separates fat from milk using a centrifuge machine so it can be measured. [1, 2]
Common Types of Milk Butyrometers
Depending on the type of dairy product you are testing, different models are sourced through vendors like IBEX SCIENCES:
- Standard Milk Butyrometers (0–8% or 0–10%): These feature a scale designed for regular raw milk, pasteurized commercial milk, and standard dairy testing. [1]
- Skim Milk Butyrometers (0–0.5%): These units have a much longer, finer neck with hyper-precise graduations to measure the tiny trace amounts of fat left behind in skimmed products. [1]
- Cream Butyrometers (0–40% or higher): These are built with a much wider, higher-capacity neck scale to handle thick, high-fat cream samples.
Material and Build Quality
- Premium Borosilicate Glass: Crafted to withstand thermal shocks and the heavy chemical reactions caused by mixing milk with concentrated sulfuric acid. [1, 2]
- Acid-Resistant Markings: Scale numbers and lines are printed using specialized materials (like silver nitrate amber) so the markings will not wash off when wiped with harsh cleaning acids. [1]
- Dual-Opening Design: Features precise openings at both ends to securely hold rubber Gerber stoppers and make cleaning easy. [1]
