In several cases the method has been applied to milk products which were also assayed for riboflavin by means of chicks. The chick assays upon six samples gave an average value of 21.2 micrograms per gram. An average value of 21.5 micrograms per gram was obtained by the photometric test. The method presented in this paper is preferred because of its rapidity, and because biological assays may be complicated at times by the presence or absence of nutritional factors which are not as yet clearly defined.
A detailed study has been made of the Denigbs colorimetric method for phosphorus. The concentrations of reagents at which phosphomolybdate gives a maximum
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
