The Refractometer is an essential item in any dairy or equine operation as it allows for the easy testing of colostrum. It is vital for two to four litres of good colostrum, packed full of antibodies, to be fed to foals and calves in the first 12 hours of life. To use the refractometer, test the calibration with distilled water then place two drops of the colostrum for testing on the glass prism. Aim the refractometer towards the light and read the colostrum level off the internal scale.
