1. A method for detecting particulate matter in a liquid in a transparent container which particulate matter may include first particles which will move in the liquid when the liquid is rotated at a first rate and can be easily detected when the liquid is rotating at said first rate, and second particles which will move in the liquid when the liquid is rotated at a second rate different from said first rate and can be easily detected when said liquid is moving at said second rate, said first particles being difficult to detect when the liquid is rotating at said second rate and said second particles being difficult to detect when the liquid is rotating at said first rate, comprising the steps of rotating the container to bring the liquid to at least both said first and second rates of rotation, rapidly stopping the rotation of the container after the liquid has reached each of its said first and second rates of rotation, and immediately inspecting the rotating liquid after each said stopping, said first rate of rotation of said liquid being lower than the said second rate and the said liquid being brought to its first rate of rotation, inspected, then brought to its second rate of rotation and again inspected.
