The black stains that sometimes stick to the inside of test bottles after prolonged use, can be removed with a little muriatic acid, or by means of a small stiff brush. 48. Pipette. The difference in the weights of various samples of normal milk generally falls within compara- tively narrow limits; if a given volume of water weighs one pound, the same volume of the usual grades of nor- mal milk will weigh from to pounds, or on the average, lbs. 18 grams of water measures 18 Qc}; 18 grams of milk will therefore take up a smaller volume than 18 cc, \iz., 18 divided by , which is very nearly This is the quantity of milk taken in the Babcock test. A certain amount of milk will adhere to the walls of the pi- pette when it is emptied, and this thin film has been found to weigh about one-tenth of a gram; consequently cc. has been adopted as the capacity of the pipette used for delivering 18 grams of milk. For convenience in measuring the milk, the shape of the pipette is of importance. , points- ^ x' r- L- ^ proper con- The mark on the stem shoiTld be two inches ''f™''\'°°K', ^• unaeslranle or more from the upper end of the pip- 'Cubic centlmeterc (abbreviated: cc.) are the standard used for mensurlne volnme in the metrlr system, similar to the quart or pint.
