Methods for the micro-determination of iodine in biological material', Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Science and Animal Industry, vol. 2, no. 1 , pp.123-130.http://hdl.handle.net/2263/48369The articles have been scanned in colour with a HP Scanjet 5590; 600dpi. Adobe Acrobat XI Pro was used to OCR the text and also for the merging and conversion to the final presentation PDF-format.Micro-analytical methods for the determination of iodine in biological substances are discussed and the efficiency of the nickel dish method compared with that of the dry oxidation in a closed system. It is shown that under the conditions specified the error in duplicate analyses does not exceed 20 per cent., while over 80 per cent. of the total iodine present, i.e. iodine in the original material plus the amount added, can be recovered.en©Union of South Africa, Dept. of Agriculture (original). ©University of Pretoria, Dept. of Library Services (digital).Veterinary medicineSouth AfricaVeterinary reportsVeterinary medicine -- South AfricaMinerals in nutritionMineral metabolismArticle
