A METHOD OF ESTABLISHING THE PRESENCE OF SPECIFIC SUBSTANCES IN MILK AS WELL AS AN IMPLEMENT FOR APPLYING SAME

摘要

A method of establishing the presence of specific substances, such as contaminations, in the milk yielded from individual animals and obtained at consecutive milking runs, comprises the following steps: with the aid of a color sensor measuring system (9) the intensity of frequencies in a number of defined frequency bands, in particular the intensity of a number of defined colours in the milk, is established; the intensity values obtained are subsequently stored in a data file that is present for a relevant animal in a computer (13), whereafter these intensity values are compared both mutually and with corresponding intensity values recorded during one or more previous milking runs and the results of this comparison process are indicated.
