The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subjec
9、t for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)
10、 on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committee
11、s are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.

Sampling is not part of the method specified in this International Standard. A recommended sampling metho
31、d is given in ISO 707IDF 501. 8 Procedure 8.1 Preparation of test sample Prior to analysis, remove the rind, the smear or the mouldy surface layer of the cheese in such a way as to obtain a test sample representative of the cheese as it is usually consumed. Grind or grate the test sample by using an
32、 appropriate grinding or grating device (6.1). Mix the ground mass quickly. If necessary, e.g. for semi-hard and hard cheese, grind the mixture a second time and mix thoroughly. Preferably, cut the hard and semi-hard cheese into cubes of side 15 mm. Grind or grate the test sample as previously descr
33、ibed. Clean the device after preparing each sample. If the test sample cannot be ground or grated, mix it thoroughly by intensive kneading, e.g. with a pestle in a mortar. Avoid moisture loss. Store the prepared test sample in an airtight container until commencing the analysis. Preferably, however,
34、 analyse the samples as soon as possible after grinding. If delay is unavoidable, take all precautions to ensure proper preservation of the test sample. If refrigerated, bring the test sample to room temperature. Thoroughly mix the sample (to obviate a well-documented transfer of moisture within the
35、 cheese that occurs during cooling and warming). Ensure that any condensation of moisture on the inside surface of the container is thoroughly and uniformly re-incorporated into the test sample. Do not examine ground cheese showing unwanted mould growth or signs of deterioration. 8.2 Determination o
36、f the different fractions 8.2.1 Total nitrogen (TN) Take a test portion of crushed cheese (8.1), depending on the assumed nitrogen content of the cheese and in order to obtain 0,025 g of nitrogen per digestion tube. Determine the total nitrogen content in accordance with the procedure specified in I
37、SO 8968-1IDF 20-1 or ISO 8968-2IDF 20-2. 8.2.2 Preparation of the citrate solution of cheese Weigh, to the nearest 1 mg, approximately 20 g of crushed cheese (8.1) in a 250 ml beaker. Using a measuring cylinder, add 100 ml of citrate solution (5.2) and mix. Place the mixture in the water bath (6.6)
38、maintained at 45 C for 15 min while shaking regularly (manually or by using a magnetic stirrer). If using a bar magnet (6.7), take care to rinse the latter in order to avoid losses. Using the homogenizer and mixer (6.3), crush until obtaining a homogeneous suspension. Rinse the rotor of the crusher
39、and homogenizer with water (5.1) while collecting the rinsings in the beaker. Place the obtained mixture in the water bath (6.6) maintained at 45 C until completely dissolved for 1 h maximum. If small, undissolved pieces still persist, further homogenize the mixture using the homogenizer (6.3). Then
40、 rinse the rotor as previously specified while collecting the rinsings again. 2) Example of a suitable product available commercially.

The dissolution of processed cheeses can also be conducted in water (5.1). 8.2.3 Preparation of the SN fraction Using a graduated pipette (6.9), introduce 50 ml of the citrate solution of cheese obtaine

Quantitatively transfer into a 100 ml one-mark volumetric flask (6.8). Make up to the mark with water (5.1) and mix. Filter (6.12) the solution. Using a graduate
44、d pipette (6.9), transfer 15 ml of filtrate into the digestion tube. Carry out the digestion and determine the SN content in accordance with the procedure specified in ISO 8968-1IDF 20-1 or ISO 8968-2IDF 20-2. 8.2.4 Preparation of the TCA-SN fraction Using a graduated pipette (6.9), introduce 50 ml
45、of the citrate solution of cheese obtained in 8.2.2 into a 100 ml one-mark volumetric flask (6.8). Make up to the mark with 24 % TCA solution (5.4) and mix. Filter (6.12) the solution. Using a graduated pipette (6.9), transfer 20 ml of filtrate into the digestion tube. Carry out the digestion and de
46、termine the TCA-SN content in accordance with the procedure specified in ISO 8968-1IDF 20-1 or ISO 8968-2IDF 20-2. 8.2.5 Preparation of the PTA-SN fraction Using a graduated pipette (6.9), introduce 50 ml of the citrate solution of cheese obtained in 8.2.2 into a 100 ml one-mark volumetric flask (6.
47、8). Add 20 ml of the 25 % PTA solution (5.5) and mix. Make up to the mark with 25 % sulfuric acid solution (5.6). Filter (6.12) the solution. Using a graduated pipette (6.9), transfer 20 ml of filtrate into the digestion tube. Carry out the digestion and determine the PTA-SN content in accordance wi

NOTE The weighing of the test portions of citrate solution and filtrate (for digestion) is allowed in 8.2.3, 8.2.4 and 8.2.5 under the conditions which the final dilutions are realized as a mass fraction (instead of a volume fra
49、ction). 8.3 Blank test Simultaneously with the determination of the test sample, carry out a blank test using the same procedure as specified in 8.2.3 to 8.2.5, but omitting the test portion (citrate solution without cheese). 9 Calculation and expression of results 9.1 Calculation Calculate the soluble nitrogen of the different nitrogenous fractions of the test sample, wSN,expressed in grams of nitrogen per 100 g of test sample, using the following equation: sbrSNw1, 4 0 0 7 ( )VVcwf BS ISO
