where

F

  • the fat content,

    • m0

  • the mass, in grams, of the test portion (6.2.),

    • m1

  • the mass, in grams, of the fat-collecting vessel and extracted matter determined in 6.5.14.,

    • m2

  • the mass, in grams, of the prepared fat-collecting vessel or, in the case of undissolved material, of the fat-collecting vessel and insoluble residue determined in 6.5.16.,

    • m3

  • the mass, in grams, of the fat-collecting vessel used in the blank test (6.3.) and any extracted matter determined in 6.5.14.,

    • m4

  • the mass, in grams, of the prepared fat-collecting vessel (see 6.4.) used in the blank test (6.3.), or in the case of undissolved material, of the fat-collecting vessel and insoluble residue determined in 6.5.16.
