What is BS 770-1-General instructions for chemical analysis of cheese about?
BS 770 is a British standard on methods for chemical analysis of cheese that discusses the general instructions for chemical analysis of cheese to ensure the cheese is safe for consumption.
BS 770-1 is the first part of the BS 770 series that gives general instructions which need to be read in conjunction with each of the test methods described in other Parts (published separately).
Note: The method of preparation of the sample is a more detailed version of the method described in various International Standards on the analysis of cheese (e.g., ISO 2962).
