Principle
The principle involved in measuring the specific gravity by a lactometer is that a floating object sinks until it has displaced a weight of fluid equal to its own weight. The greater is the volume of the displaced fluid, the smaller is the specific gravity of the fluid, and the lower is the lactometer reading.

Materials required
Procedure
Calculation
Specific gravity = 1+ CLR\1000
SNF %( Solids Not Fat) = CLR\4 + 0.2xF + 0.36
Where F = Fat % in the milk sample.
Result and Interpretation
The lactometer reading taken at 84˚F (29˚C) is the corrected lactometer reading.

How To Calculate Snf of CLR 28 c And Fat 3.5 Plz Give Me Example
= CLR\4 + 0.2xF + 0.36
=28/4+0.2*3.5+.36
=7+0.7+0.36
=8.06%
there is 0.36 is factor. its may be different state wise.
.36 factor where is come
Its very by states
Why factor use in farmula
SNF=CLR/4+(0.22*Fat+0.72
Kindly find the below
Fat - 3.1
SNF - 8.05
CLR - ? How to calculate I need formula .
Why we multiply fat% with .2
SNF 8.5 and fat-0.0 How much CLR?
8.5-0.29=8.21
8.21*4= 32.84
CLR= 32.84= 33
SNF 7.86 FAT 5.3 HOW MUCH CLR
5.3*0.2=1.06
7.86-0.36=7.5
7.5-1.06=6.44
6.44*4=25.76 CLR
To calculate milk SNF there is need a correction factor.How is it differ and reason behind it?
Fat=3.5
CLR=28
TEMP.=33°C
SNF=?
20 to 35 lactometer reading and27°C
How this corrections factor od S.N.F.
Please tell us that How we calculate the CLR?
if LR of quevenne lactometer is 28 at 32 C temperature.
