. UNIQUE AMONG DISINFECTANTS

NoLVASAN is a 2% solution of chlorhexidine ( bis-p-chlorophenyldiguanidohexane), a relatively new synthetic chemical which, ,exhibits marked antibacterial activity against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. Bacterio­ static studies show inhibition at dilutions of 1:50,000 I 1:1,000,000. Bact~ricidal action against 99% of bacteria prese~t was complete within 5 minutes. Efficacy has been shown to persist in presence of milk, blood and other organic matter.

Although it has a phenol coefficient of 500 against Micrococcus pyogenes and 5.10 against Salmonidla typhosa, both acute and chronic toxicity studies have proven it to be nontoxic to cattle when used in recommended dilutions. It does not inhibit healing of cuts, abrasions or chapped skin surfaces.

In general, NoLVASAN shows greater antibacterial activity than benzalkonium chloride, a combination of a-phenyl- and p-tett-amphylphenol, and an iodine­ polyvinylpyrrolidone complex, when tested in the presence of nutrient media. It is also superior to streptomycin against Vibrio foetus and has been found more effective than either tyrothricin or acriflavine against Trichomonas foetus.

NoLVASAN is available through veterinarians everywhere. It is supplied in concentrated form (for dilution of lf2 to 1 oz. per gallon of water) in 1-gallon plastic containers. Published literature on request.

At American Can Company we try to do more than merely meet allowable health tol­ erances. Result: An average of 95 % of our waxed milk cartons are absolutely sterile! The remaining 5% rarely have more than one ' bacterium each ... according to standard rinse tests. That's less than 0.4% of toler­ ance level!

WHERE EXTRAS COUNT Stamped-out blanks for milk cartons are stored in clean, dust-proof cabinets. In the forming and heat-sealing process, the blanks are exposed to blasts of air heated to 400°F. The formed cartons are completely im­ mersed, inside and out, in molten paraffin at a sterilizing temperature of 165°F . Then, the paraffin coating is solidified by circu­ lating cold air and plugs a re mechanically closed, still inside the paraffining machi:r.e (even the air used in the process is filtered). Finally, the sealed, sterile, cartons are placed in heavy, dustproof paper "carriers", sealed for shipment to dairies. As a public health official, you can take pride in the fact that suggestions by the Public Health authorities have helped to im­ prove and perfect our production procedures. These procedures insure that customers re7 ceive MILK AT ITS BEST IN THE BEST POSSIBLE SANITARY CONTAINER.

In Part I, the mixtmes were cooled from an initial temperatme of 140 F to a final temperature of 80 F. The final temperatme of 80 F was chosen because in an earlier study involving the same refrigerator (7), it was found that when large amounts of food were precooled to 80 F before they were introduced into this same refrigerator, the refrigerator air tem­ perahJre did not rise. In Parts II, III, and IV, the foods were cooled to 50 F. By choosing th.is lower .A final temperah1re, the period of agitation was con­ siderably lengthened and an opportunity was afford­ ed to determine possible consistency changes under more rigid conditions. Cooling to this low temper­ ature should be rapid in order that the food will remain in the bacteriologically dangerous temperature zone (9) for a minimum length of time.

R ELATIVE VISCOSITY The relative viscosity of the custards and puddings was determined by measuring the radius of spread using a modification of the linespread method as described by Billings (1). The measurements were . taken on two samples of the mixtures: one sample at a temperature of 140 F removed from the cooked B· c mixture before agitation, and a second sample re­ Figure 1.

TABLE 4. DATA FROM LABORATORY G It is important to note that this rather l arge con­ fidence interval is almost entirely due to consistent J\l eans differences between laboratories. If Laboratory G Day Dilution Plato (Log SPC)-6 Dilution Da:r Lab had nm several more days' worth of samples, they 10' 1 2.568 could at best have redu:ced the standard error from 2 2.613 2.590 0.754 to 0.724 (the square root of 0.5239).

To the extent that this limited study permits gen­ to at least the 5% level. Thus one obtains, as inde­ eralizations, it seems clem 'that standardization of pendent entities, significant components of variation techniques among laboratories is the most important for labs, days, and dilutions as well as an estimate problem to tackle. Simply replicating results within of the "residual" or plate error. laboratories will not overcome this barrier to estab­ lishment of food standards based on plate counts. DISCUSSION Sending food samples to laboratories in several To illush·ate the utility of these results, let us com­ counties is hardly practical for everyday use. pute standard errors for use by a laboratory in this Some of the suggested sources of variation bel:\veen study.

For this reason, the McCaffrey Calibration· Flask is ideal for use in dairy industry laboratories as a standard for· checking commercial milk dilution bottles. It is made of borosilicate glass, with 3 etched calibration marks . . . to contain 97 ml, 99 ml and 101 ml with ±0.16 ml volumetric tolerance as required by Federal Specifications DD-V-581a. Flask features a 40 mm diameter funnel top for easy filling from dilution bottle, allows capac ity of bot­ tle to be quickly checked to fall between the 97 and 101 graduation marks. Dimensions: 160 mm high, 60 mm diameter at base. No. M81 00-McCaffrey Calibration Flask. Each ...... $6.50 6, each ...... 6.00 * Design suggested by J. C.

If you are willing-to sacrifice good cow milking and easy But cheap rubber 11 ding uses" are n good way to ho ld the cleaning, you can buy a real cheap cow milker. A Dairyman price d own when you sign an order (often t hey will be called must decide if he wants good cow milking; also he must decide a milk valve). Later you will be called on by your Milk In­ if he wants real honest CLEANED IN PLACE WASHING ... spector to get a proper va lve. Then you h ave the installa tion Most Dairymen know that anything short of good cow milking cost plus the va lve cost to add to your original price. The is going to be short on each milk check, month after month, time to get the right milk va lves is at the tim e the origina l ( year after year. This means the money you save on the pur­ installation is made . .. it will cost much less to do it at .. chase of your milking machine will be taken from you many that time.

COULD BUILD We can't talk about pipeline milking without talking a bout A MILK CLAW BUT WE WON'T the filtering of milk. Most Dairym en must filter t heir milk ... We understand the importance of the break in the column the law requires that. Some milking systerns use a "sock of milk that only a Surge Breaker Cup can give you. (There is filter" ... this is a filter that is placed in the line and a ll no better way to understand why we use a Breaker Cup than milk must pass through this sleeve or sock. Some systems usc to study the movies that the Patent Examiners in Washington a circular filter disc .. . this disc may be mounted in a holder studied before they awarded Babson Bros. Co. Patent #2709416 . that tits in the milk hose or in the case of the S urge Breaker It takes eight minutes to view this movie and your Surge Cup it can be placed in the base of the Breaker Cup. Many Dealer will be glad to arrange for you to see it. ) areas require the milk to be filtered from each individual cow and where this requirem en t is in force , the round filter pad No milk claw can give you downward and forward Surge is used . Tug and Pull. Almost every set of rules that has been written about good cow milking has some words written about this. More recently the "OUTSIDE-THE-SYSTEM" Filter has Some Milking Machine manufacturers sell weights of various been developed. This system removes all filter pads or "sqcks" sizes to hang on milk claws ... in a great many cases " Milking from the milking system ... this permits a free flow of air Stones" have been put to work by the Dairymen. Weights that can remove all the filtering apparatus from the milk and Milking Stones will do some good, but they are clumsy lines. Thus the milk flow is not forced or sucked t hrough the filter but flows slowly by gravity through the filter. Milking , and difficult for the Dairyman. is not slowed down either by the filter or by the dirt that it Dr. Charles Turner of the University of Missouri says it is might pick up. On an " OUTSIDE-THE-SYSTEM" Filter there important to drop the teat cup as each quarter is milked out. is an electrical control device that lets you know if the filter is If you purchase a machine with a milk claw, t his is difficult plugged. This same " OUTSIDE-THE-SYSTEM" Filter is a or near impossible to do. C.I.P. Filter which lets it tit into our con cept of an " Honest THE TONGANOXIE MILKING SYSTEM Cleaned In Place System." IS JUST ABOUT THE BEST COW MILKING I stuck t hese words in here because when you buy a milk­ ing system, filtering should be considered . The " OUTSIDE­ YOU WILL EVER SEE THE-SYSTEM" Filter is one way you can filter on a Surge A Dairyman should understand about the constant vacuum System. If you live in an area where you are required to filter of the low milk line. He should know and understand how the the milk from each cow, then you would put the filter in the dual pumping system isolates the pulsator m ovement from bottom of each Breaker Cup. Those Dair ymen who are using the end of the cow 's teat ...

It would a ppear that getting the filter tial is important to all Dairymen. These are things that the out of the milk line is a good idea. Dairyman who is buying a Milking Machine should thor­ oughly understand. A MILKING MACHINE IS ABOUT THE MOST CONSTANT VACUUM IS IMPORTANT IMPORTANT THING YOU WILL EVER BUY FOR THE CONTROL OF MASTITIS ••• For over fifty years there h ave been companies spring ing up R esearch is recorded that confirms this . ..

HOW ABOUT THE ELECTRICAL WORK It will be a very short time and you will know that the first You can hire an electrician to wire up a pipeline milker and cost was unimporta n t .. . but the profits that it will bring will end up with a bunch of electrica l equipment strung all over be very in1portant for every day, every week, every month and the milk house walls ... or you can have a Surge Power Panel for . many years. that is neat, and chances are it wilJ cost less than it will to hire a man to string wires. But the wages of the electrician don't always show in t h e original price ... These wages will sure be on your bill sooner or later. COMPARE THE MILK VALVES A good milk va lve will cost money. It would be easy to make a rubber " dingus" to stop up a hole ... but it can't be kept clean and it does leave milk contact area exposed to fli es and dirt. When the va lve nipple is exposed, it collects fl y specks, which are rubbed off into the inside of the milk hose. © Bab son Bros. Co., 1963 •SURGE, BREAKE R and TONG ANOX IE are Ba bson Bros.
