Product Description
Running the Gerber butterfat method calls for a pipet that dispenses the same milk volume into every butyrometer. This pipet is built to the method's requirements so dairy labs can produce comparable fat results from sample to sample. It is a dependable choice for plant laboratories, regulatory testing and teaching programs.
