A. Principle
15
Reconstitute powder samples by dissolving 25 g powder sample in 200 g warm water (40 ° C),
16
while ready-to-feed products (RTF) are used as-is. Precipitate proteins by adding precipitation
17
reagents I and II and centrifuge. Acidify the supernatant with nitric acid solution. Titrate chloride
18
ions against standardized silver nitrate solution, 0.1 M, potentiometrically using a silver
19
electrode to detect the end point.
