# 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 4.1: General

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

Irrespective of the tests to be performed, the milk shall be thoroughly mixed prior to sampling, by either manual or mechanical means.
The sample shall be taken immediately after mixing while the milk is still agitated.
The volume of the sample shall be adequate to the testing requirements. The capacity of the sample containers used shall be such that they are filled almost completely by the sample, thus allowing proper mixing of the contents before testing, but avoiding churning during transport.
