Extract

An examination of over 5000 milk samples has shown that penicillin is frequently present. Its concentration, however, is usually below the level which is believed to be necessary to cause significant interference in cheese-making, but a significant proportion of the samples contained more than a third of this quantity. This suggests that conditions under which difficulty would arise are not remote.
