*****COMMISSION  REGULATION ( EEC ) No 3480/90  of 30 November 1990  amending Regulation ( EEC ) No 1725/79 on the rules for granting laid to skimmed milk processes into compound feedingstuffs and skimmed-milk powder intended in particular for feed for calves  THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,  Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,  Having regard to Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 804/68 of 27 June 1968 on the common organization of the market in milk and milk products ( 1 ), as last amended by Regulation ( EEC ) No 3117/90 ( 2 ), and in particular Article 10 ( 3 ) thereof,  Whereas Article 10 ( 3 ) of Commission Regulation ( EEC ) No 1725/79 ( 3 ), as last amended by Regulation ( EEC ) No 2871/90 ( 4 ), states that the skimmed-milk powder has to be determined by testing each sample at least in duplicate in accordance with the method of analysis specified in Annex III; whereas it is desirable to extend the field of application to compound feedingstuffs even containing less than 50 % skimmed-milk powder;  Whereas the analytical procedure has to be modified in order to eliminate possible sources of error;  Whereas a correction of the analytical data by a factor obtained from regression analysis leads to more accurate results;  Whereas the repeatability and reproducibility of the new procedure have to be determined;  Whereas a tolerance limit should be given in order to facilitate the interpretation of analytical results;  Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Management Committee for Milk and Milk Products,  HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION :  Article 1  Regulation ( EEC ) No 1725/79 is hereby amended as follows :  1 . in Article 10 ( 3 ), the first subparagraph is replaced by the following :  "The results of the inspections referred to in Article 2 ( 2 ) and in paragraph 2 ( a ), ( b ) and ( c ) of this Article shall be recorded by the agency responsible for inspection in the analysis report and inspection report, specimens of which appear in Annexes I and II . The quantity of skimmed-milk powder shall be determined by testing each sample at least in duplicate in accordance with the method of analysis specified in Annex III . Where such inspections relate to skimmed-milk powder to be used, whether as such or in the form of a mixture, the absence of rennet whey powder is proven by the procedure outlined in Annex IV .';  2 . Annex III is amended as set out in the Annex hereto .  Article 2  This Regulation shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Communities .  It shall apply from 1 January 1991 .  This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States .  Done at Brussels, 30 November 1990 .

Replace by : "Calcium chloride ( 2M solution ). Weigh 20,018 g of CaCO3 ( analytical grade ) in a porcelain capsule of suitable size ( 150 to 200 ml ) or in a beaker . Cover with distilled water and transfer onto a boiling water bath . Add slowly 50 to 60 ml of HCI solution ( conc . HCI : water = 1 : 1 ) to solubilize the carbonate completely . Keep on the boiling water bath until the CaCI2 is dried, to eliminate the HCI which has not reacted . Transfer with distilled water to a 100 ml measuring flask and dilute to the mark . Control the pH value, which must be not lower than 4,0 . Store the solution in a refrigerator .'  4.6 .  Replace "Commission Directive 72/199/EEC of 27 April 1972' by "IDF 20A 1986 '.  6.3.1 .  Replace "1 ml' by "3,4 ml '.  6.3.2 . to 6.4.1 .: Replace by the following text :  1.2.3"6.3.2 .  Transfer the liquid into one ( or two ) certifuge tubes and centrifuge at 2 000 g for 10 minutes in order to remove the precipitated material . Transfer the supernatant, without washing the sediment, into one ( or two ) centrifuge tubes .   //  6.3.3 .  Bring the temperature of the supernatant back to 37 *C . While stirring the extract, add, dropwise, 0,5 ml of the liquid rennet ( 4.5 ). Coagulation appears in one or two minutes .   //  6.3.4 .  Return the sample to the water bath and leave at a temperature of 37 *C for 15 minutes . Remove the sample from the bath and break the coagulum by stirring . Centrifuge at 2 000 g for 10 minutes . Filter the supernatant through a suitable filter paper*, Whatman No 541 or equivalent, retain the filter paper . Wash the precipitate in the centrifuge tube with 50 ml of water at approximately 35 *C by stirring the precipitate .  //  //  Centrifuge again at 2 000 g for 10 minutes . Filter the supernatant through the filter paper retained previously .   //  //  //   //  //  (*) A fast filtering ashless paper should be used .   //  6.4 .

Transfer the filter paper to the Kjeldahl flask . Determine the nitrogen by the Kjeldahl method as described by IDF 20A 1986 .'  1.27.1 .  Replace "Commission Directive 72/199/EEC of 27 April 1972' by "IDF 20A 1986 '.  9.1 .  Replace by : "The percentage of skimmed-milk powder in the compound feedingstuff is calculated by the following formula :  1.2.3.4.5.6.7 //  //  (  N x 6,38 27,5  x 100  )  _ 2,81  1.2.3,7 //  % SMP =   //   //  //  0,908  1.2Where N is the percentage of para-casein nitrogen; 27,5 is the factor for converting determined casein into the percentage of skimmed-milk powder; 2,81 and 0,908 are correction factors obtained from regression analysis .  10.1 .
