# Council Decision of 14 November 1992 laying down methods for the analysis and testing of heat-treated milk for direct human consumption (92/608/EEC), Division 6.5.16: If the extracted matter is not wholly soluble in the light petroleum, or in case of doubt, extract the fat completely from the vessel by repeatedly washing with warm light petroleum.

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Allow any trace of insoluble material to settle and carefully decant the light petroleum without removing any insoluble material. Repeat this operation three more times, using the light petroleum to rinse the inside of the neck of the vessel.
Finally, rinse the outside of the top of the vessel with mixed solvent so that the solvent does not spread over the outside of the vessel. Remove light petroleum vapour from the vessel by heating the vessel for one hour in the oven, allow to cool and weigh, as described in 6.5.13. and 6.5.14.
Take the mass of fat as the difference between the mass determined in 6.5.14. and this final mass.
