(d) Bepaal die massa van die gebrekkige sojabone op die 4,75 mm-rondegatsif en druk dit uit as persen tasie van die totale massa van die betrokke werkmonster in (a) verkry . (e) lndien die persentasies van die twee werkmonste~ met meer as 0,5 persent verskil, moet 'n addisio nele bepaling op 'n ander weli<monster gedoen word en is die bepalings van paragrawe (a), (b), (c) en (d) mutatis mutandis op die addisionele monster van toepassing. (t) Bepaal die gemiddeld van die persentasies in paragraaf (d) of (e) , na gelang van die geval. verkry . (g) Sodanige gemiddeld verteenwoordig die persentasie gebrekkige sojabone in die besending. Bepaling mn die persenlasie sojabone en gedeeltes mn sojabone waJ deur die 4; 75 mm-rondegatsif gaan 16. bepaal: Die persentasie sojabone en gedeeltes van sojabone wat deur die 4, 75 mm-rondegatsif gaan, word soos volg (a) Bepaal die massa van die sojabone en stukkies sojabone in die pan soos verkry volgens 15(a), (b) en (c) en druk dit uit as 'n persentasie van die totale massa van die betrokke werkmonster in 15(a) ver kry. (b) Indien die persentasies van die twee werkmonsters met meer as 0,5 persent verskil, moet 'n addisio nele bepaling op 'n ander werkmonster gedoen word en is die bepalings van paragraaf (a) mutatis mutandis op die addisionele monster van toepassing. (c) Bepaal die gemiddeld van die persentasies in (a) of (b). na gelang van die geval. verkry . (d) Sodanige gemiddeld verteenwoordig die persentasie sojabone en stukkies sojabone in die besending wat deur die 4,75 rnrn-rondegatsif gaan. &paling van persentasie vuilgesmeerde sojabone 17. Die persentasie vuilgesmeerde sojabone in 'n besending sojabone word soos volg bepaal: (a) Verkry twee werkrnonsters met 'n massa van minstens 100 9 elk van die monster van die besending nadat alle vreemde voorwerpe en peule verwyder is. (b) Verwyder alle vuilgesmeerde sojabone uit elke werkmonster en bepaal die massa van die vuilge smeerde sojabone aldus verwyder . (c) Druk die massa ingevolge paragraaf (b) bepaal, uit as 'n persentasie van die totale massa van die be trokke werkmonster. (d) lndien die persentasies van die duplikaatwerkmonsters met meer as 0,5 persent verskil, moot 'n addi sionele bepaling op 'n ander werkmonster gedoen word en is die bepalings van paragrawe (a), (b) en (c) mutatis mutandis op die addisionele monster van toepassing. (e) Bepaal die gemiddeld van die persentasies in paragraaf (c) of (d), na gelang van die geval, verkry . (t) Sodanige persentasie verteenwoordig die persentasie vuilgesrneerde sojabone in die betrokke besen ding. STAATSKOERANT, 24 NOVEMBER 2000 No.21759 31 v VOGINHOUD Bepaling mn wginhoud 18.
