Abstract
By biological tests English Cheddar cheese had a vit. A potency of an order (ca. 7.5 I.U. per g.) expected from its milk fat content, and from the results of colorimetric estimations of vit. A and carotene. Other full-milk cheeses gave similar colorimetric results. Lower values were found for cheeses of lower fat content.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
