Fiber Optic Sensor Response To High Levels Of Fat In Cream, Czarena L. Crofcheck, Frederick A. Payne, Clair L. Hicks, M. Pinar Mengüç, Sue E. Nokes
Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering Faculty Publications
A light backscatter technique using optical fibers to deliver and receive light was investigated for measuring the milkfat content of unhomogenized cream. Light backscatter through cream at wavelengths of 450 to 900 nm was measured for fiber separation distances from 2 to 6.5 mm and for cream containing 10 to ~40 weight percent (wt%) milkfat. Unhomogenized cream (~40 wt% milkfat) was mixed with skim milk (~0.05 wt% milkfat) to yield samples with five different milkfat levels. Three optical response models were tested for correlation with milkfat content: one using the light intensity measurement at a single separation distance, the second …

Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
The purpose of this publication is to furnish the housewife with information on ways to utilize more milk in the home, especially in the farm home where milk is readily available and an economical source of vitality and greater health for all the family.
Babcock Testing And Other Methods Of Analyzing Dairy Products, L. K. Crowe
Babcock Testing And Other Methods Of Analyzing Dairy Products, L. K. Crowe
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
The manufacturing of dairy products on a commercial scale began about the middle of the nineteenth century and was greatly stimulated by the development of the centrifugal cream separator in the late eighties. The invention of the Babcock test in the early nineties overcame some of the difficulties that had developed in paying for milk upon its butterfat content, since it was early recognized that milk varied widely in that respect.
Judging Quality In Dairy Products, P. A. Downs
Judging Quality In Dairy Products, P. A. Downs
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
In the dairy industry increasing attention is being paid to the question of quality of products. The well established system of buying and selling butter and cheese on the basis of quality by score or grade is practiced in the principal markets of the world. The other dairy products, while not marketed by score, are receiving more and more attention in this respect. As more information becomes available and the judging better standardized, other dairy products will doubtless be sold by grade.
Cooling, Storage, And Transporation Of Milk And Cream, P. A. Downs, F. D. Yung
Cooling, Storage, And Transporation Of Milk And Cream, P. A. Downs, F. D. Yung

The care given milk and milk products should be such that they will be relished by young and old alike. Greater use of milk can be encouraged by serving fresh milk cold. Cooling of milk also insures a fine product several hours after production. This is important not only for milk that is to be used, but for milk or cream that is to be sold.
The Vitamin A Content Of Skimmilk, Standardized Milk, And Cream From Different Breeds Of Cows, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis
The Vitamin A Content Of Skimmilk, Standardized Milk, And Cream From Different Breeds Of Cows, I. L. Hathaway, H. P. Davis
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
A study was made of the vitamin A content of skimmilk, of milk standardized by the addition of separated milk, and of cream. Rats whose body stores of vitamin A had been depleted by being fed a vitamin A deficient ration were fed either skimmilk, standardized milk, or cream as a source of vitamin A. Approximately 750 rats were used in nine experiments. From the results of these experiments the following conclusions were drawn: (1) that the vitamin A content of milk is associated largely with the butterfat and that separated milk containing a small quantity of fat contains only …

Selection, Breeding, Methods Means More Milk, H. P. Davis
Selection, Breeding, Methods Means More Milk, H. P. Davis
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
Milk good cows. It pays if you know how. Good dairy cows will always make money. Scrub, poor, or common cows never bring a good profit and usually cause a loss. Why waste feed and labor on inefficient producers, the kind that never make a satisfactory profit? Join a cow testing association. Let the tester keep books on your cows and let the milk scale and the milk sheet point out the money makers. Improvement comes only from selection and breeding.
Cooling Tanks And Milk Houses As Factors In Cream Improvement, J. H. Frandsen
Cooling Tanks And Milk Houses As Factors In Cream Improvement, J. H. Frandsen
Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station: Historical Circulars
The dairymen of this country have suffered enormous losses due to the lower price received for poor butter. The present need is for a survey of the situation that shall result in a thoro understanding and cooperation of cream producers, creamery men, legislators, and educators.
