چکیده

The micro-Kjeldahl method for nitrogen determination has been widely used in organic chemistry laboratories in recent years. The value of this method, developed through the brilliant researches of PiLcH, BANG, PARNAS and WAGNER, PREGL, and coworkers, has justified its application to industrial and clinical problems. Plant physiologists have not generally adopted quantitative micro-methods for nitrogen analysis. The purpose of the present study was to test the applicability of the micro-Kjeldahl method for the determination of nitrogen in plant materials.

Comparison of Dumas and Kjeldahl methods for determination of nitrogen in feces.

The present study was undertaken to compare the nitrogen content of human feces as determined by the Kjeldahl technic and the micro-Dumas method as utilized in the automated Coleman nitrogen analyzer. The standard deviation between duplicate determinations of the same sample was 0.06% nitrogen in the case of the nitrogen analyzer and 0.02% nitrogen for the Kjeldahl method. The standard deviatio...

Determination of total protein in human milk: comparison of methods.

We evaluated four spectrophotometric methods for suitability in determining total protein in human milk samples. Results were compared with those by an established method for the determination of total nitrogen (micro-Kjeldahl). Values for total protein by all four methods significantly correlated with micro-Kjeldahl. For the biuret assay, Lowry-Peterson assay, Bio-Rad Coomassie Blue assay, and...

Kjeldahl nitrogen analysis as a reference method for protein determination in dairy products.

Measurement of total nitrogen by Kjeldahl analysis is the historical reference method for determination of the protein content of dairy products and is used for both calibration and validation of alternative methods for protein determination. Accurate evaluation of alternative methods is not possible if there is large uncertainty regarding the reference values. When Kjeldahl analysis is used to...
