TOTAL NITROGEN DETERMINATION BY THE KOBER METHOD.

Method performance study of the determination of total nitrogen in soy sauce by the Kjeldahl method.

The objective of this collaborative study was to evaluate the proposed method for determining the total nitrogen in soy sauce by the Kjeldahl method submitted to the Codex Alimentarius Commission for endorsement in accordance with the protocol for the design, conduct, and interpretation of method-performance studies. The digestive conditions of the proposed method are the addition of 10 mL of H...

Total nitrogen determination

As a preliminary to the consideration of automated, or more correctly mechanized, methods for the determination of total organic nitrogen the discussion of some general aspects of nitrogen determination is illuminating. There are at least four recent reviews, for example those by Bradstreet (1965), Fleck & Munro (I965), Jacobs (1965), and Munro & Fleck (1969), of the determination of nitrogen f...

Determination of the total nitrogen content of hard, semihard, and processed cheese by the Kjeldahl method: collaborative study.

The objective of this collaborative study was to determine interlaboratory performance statistics for a modified and optimized version of AOAC Method 920.123 for the determination of the total nitrogen content of hard, semihard, and processed cheese by Kjeldahl analysis. Details included addressing the issues of material homogeneity, test portion size (1 g), quantitative transfer (weighing on t...

Nitrogen/Protein Determination In Milk Proteins By Dumas Combustion Method

Correspondence: A method for determining total nitrogen...

The digestion method using a small proportion of a strong oxidizing agent perchloric acid seems to have been taken from a ’continuous flow method’, which was not designed for discrete digestion and analysis. There is considerable evidence that satisfactory digestion ofeven tMrly refractory substances can be achieved without the use of perchloric acid (1) and it is now usually recommended that p...
