11、rations.The commercially dried scoured wool is weighed,then sampled for laboratory determination of its oven-driedweight(mass)and its content of alcohol-extractable matter,mineral matter,vegetable-matter base,and other alkali-insoluble impurities.The wool base content and the clean woolfiber present
12、 are calculated as percentages of the net weight(mass)of the lot of raw wool.5.Significance and Use5.1 This test method is considered satisfactory for use as areferee method for the determination of the wool base contentand the clean wool fiber present in a lot of raw wool.If thereare differences of
