A REAGENT AND METHOD FOR SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC ASSAY OF SERUM CHLORIDE WITHOUT THE NEED FOR MERCURY OR SURFACTANT

摘要

The direct, quantitative determination of chloride in serum is effected by contacting the serum with a reagent comprising ferric salt (e.g. ferric nitrate) and an acid, e.g. a sulfonic acid, to form an iron-chloride complex, and spectrophotometrically measuring the quantity of iron-chloride complex.
