Milk Lactometer
A Milk lactometer is an instrument that is used to check the purity of milk by measuring its density. An instrument to find out the content of the water in the milk or to test the richness of the milk is thus termed a 'lactometer'.
Lactometer is a cylindrical vessel made by blowing a glass tube. One side of the glass tube looks like a bulb with filled mercury and another site is a thin tube with a scale. For milk testing, the lactometer dipped in milk which we are testing. In the lactometer, the point up to which it sinks in the pure milk is marked after that put in water and marked at the point up to which it sinks in water. It sinks less in milk than water because as we know milk is denser than water. There are two portions i.e. 'M'and 'W' which are divided into three parts and marked as 3, 2 and 1. That indicates the level of purity.
