there seems to be some messing up here…the  provision is MSNF which coincides with ISO 3727‐ 2|IDF 80‐2;AOAC 920.116 is not for MSNF but for  moisture which coincides with ISO 3727‐1|IDF‐80‐ 1.  It appears to me that AOAC 920.116 should  therefore not be listed here but on  other page  with the determination of water16) in butter. No The scope of the method is moisture in butter  although when in combination with 938.06 the  provision of milk solids‐not‐fat could be  determined.

In principle temperature is given as "boiling temp  of water" should be given as 102 +/‐ 2 degrees C. No

No The method may be fit for purpose but doesn't  appear to have been validated for cream No

No validation reference is given in AOAC 920.116;  in ISO 3727‐1 IDF 80‐1 validation data are given  (could be used as reference.

Additional review needed

AOAC 920.116 is given as  IDF‐ISO‐AOAC method.  Advise to update AOAC 920.116 with reference to  IDF‐ISO method.

No

Yes

No

No validation provided and the product is outside  the stated scope of the method.

Major change

The scope needs to be aligned with the  commodity, provision and should be validated as  it's a defining method. Alternatively remove as ISO  3727‐2|IDF 80‐2 is already correctly aligned to the  provision although not the commodity.

validation data in AOAC 96.40 as presented in  booklet do not met general requirements on  validation (no exact data on repeatability,  reproducibility, accuracy). However in ISO 5738 |  IDF 76 using the same method precision data are  given according to current requirements. So the  method will work , however technical information  is not available in required way and not  documented.

No change

Although the method is old fashioned and hardly  used, method is option at this time. However  advise to start later in 2018 process  to change  method to AOAC 2015.06 using ICP‐MS  in  conjunction with ISO/IDF

Techniques such as this one have been  superseded by newer analytical techniques  particularly as ICP‐MS or ICP‐OES which are much  more sensitive and less prone to inferences.   AOAC methods that could replace AOAC 982.23  are: AOAC 999.11: Lead, Cadmium, Copper, Iron, and  Zinc in Foods Atomic Absorption  Spectrophotometry AOAC 2011.14:  Calcium, Copper, Iron,  Magnesium, Manganese, Potassium, Phosphorus,  Sodium, and Zinc in Fortified Food Products by  Microwave Digestion and Inductively Coupled  Plasma‐Optical Emission Spectrometry

In 2012 a new SMPR 2012.007  is made for heavy  metals in general food included lead. AOAC 982.23  specificity is doubtful. Interference from Sn may  take place at high Sn concentrations. LOQ for lead  is 10 ppm which is Ok for edible caseinates.  Repeatability and reproducibility is mostly  according SMPR , but not in all products.

Yes

No

The provision is for milk protein in MSNF. Neither  AOAC 991.20 or the ISO|IDF standard listed for  the same provision are suitable without combining  with the separate MSNF methods stated. No

Remove

Whilst the product is not within the validation of  ISO 8968‐1|IDF 20‐1 either that methods  requirement to optimise the digestion for the  sample type to be tested means it is likely to be  more robust. As some automated equipment include an  integrated titration system using a potentiometric  endpoint detection (instead of colorimetric) I  would be interested in knowing the opinion of  other assessors about this variant.
