[Determination of serum iron; a comparison of two methods: atomic absorption and bathophenanthroline without deproteinisation (author's transl)]. 1978

K Lauber

Two methods for the assay of serum iron are compared; determination by atomic absorption after deproteinisation, and spectrophotometric determination after liberation of the iron by a detergent, reduction with dithionite, and chelation with bathophenanthroline disulfonate, without deproteinisation. RESULTS Regression: y = 0.996 x --0.41 (s: atomic absorption; y: bathophenanthroline method; mumol/1 Fe; r = 0.986. Precision (CV) for a series of identical samples with 14.3 mumol/1: 2.0% for atomic absorption and 1.3% for bathophenanthroline.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007202	Indicators and Reagents	Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.
