Doan Receives
Borden Award
Frances Janney Doan, profes
sor of dairy manufacturing, last
week was named recipient of
one of two Borden Awards, the
highest awards given in the field
of dairy science.
A pioneer in the study of
homogenization, Professor Doan
has been conducting research on
this process, as applied to milk
and cream, for more than 22
years. During recent years, he
has become interested in improv
ing the nutritional value of eva
porated milk and has conducted
fundamental research on the as
corbic acid content of this pro
duct.
He also has been instrumental
in development and applying
techniques for the analysis of
milk and milk products.
Contributions
Among his contributions in
this field is the colorimetric
picric acid method for measuring
loctose in milk, the application of
a modified direct microscopic
method for the bacterial analysis
of milk, and a rapid drying
method for determining the so
lids content of milk products by
the use of forced, heated air.
Long recognized as an out
standing teacher and counselor
of research men, Professor Doan
has done much to stimulate think
ing along research lines. He re
ceived both his undergraduate
and graduate training in his home
state at the College, and has
been teaching here since 1925.
Penn States will meet new
comers in the first four games on
