426  DF  BY INSPECTION WITH AGITATION OR ROTATION {2}
427.~ Of container contents


DEFINITION

Classification: 356/427

Of container contents:

(under subclass 426) Subject matter wherein the supported and rotated or agitated articles are containers holding fluids, and the inspection is directed to the fluid itself, the inspection of the container being incidental.

(1) Note. Subclasses 337+ deal with fluids which have uniformly entrained within them particles which cause scattering when tested by a directed beam of light transmitted through the fluid. Here the particles entrained do not create a uniform condition, but a localized undesired imperfection within the encapsulated or contained fluid.
