The acid used is that known as commercial sulphuric acid, having a specific gravity of to If the acid be a little weak the fact will be known by white sediment appearing under the fat column, and this may be remedied by usinga little more acid in another test. If the acid be too strong it will be indicated by the column of the fat being blackened and having black sediment below. This can be remedied by using somewhat less acid. Acid very much stronger or weaker than the standard does not give satisfactory results. (4) Centrifugal Machine.—Many forms of machines are made, varying in capacity from two to forty test-bottles.
