Abstract
A model is described for the ion equilibria between the main salt constituents of bovine milk diffusate. A mass balance equation is constructed for each of the strongly interacting components, consisting of the sum of the concentrations of free and complexed forms of that substance, and an efficient algorithm is given for solving the set of mass balance equations. The model gives calculated free calcium ion concentrations which lie between experimental values determined by ion-selective electrode and murexide methods. Calculated free calcium and magnesium ion concentrations are in general agreement with values determined by a resin equilibrium procedure. The calculated concentrations of ions and complexes in a typical milk diffusate are tabulated.
