This test method is a standard procedure for measuring moisture content in forage and feed samples. Accurate moisture determination is critical for evaluating dry matter content, which affects nutrient calculations, storage decisions, and feed quality. A known weight of sample is dried in an oven at a specified temperature (usually 105°C) for a defined period… Continue reading Moisture – 105°C
This test method is a standardized test method for the quantitative determination of mineral contaminants in crude oils and residual fuel oils. These minerals can affect refining processes and oil quality. This test method quantifies aluminum, arsenic, boron, calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, nickel, phosphorus, potassium, silicon, sodium, sulfur, and zinc.
This test method is an official method for the quantitative determination of multiple metals and elements in plant materials and pet foods using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES) post-open block digestion. This method provides reliable analysis of essential nutrients and potential contaminants in complex biological matrices. This test method quantifies calcium, copper, iron,… Continue reading Minerals [Feed]

This method provides reliable analysis of essential nutrients and potential contaminants in complex biological matrices. This test method quantifies calcium, copper, iron, magnesium,… Continue reading Minerals [Feed] from Microwave
This test method is a standardized method for the analysis of meat samples for mineral and trace element analysis using microwave-assisted acid digestion. This process effectively breaks down the complex organic matrix of meat, converting it into a clear solution suitable for instrumental analysis. This test method quantifies calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium,… Continue reading Minerals [Meat]
This test method is a standardized procedure for the determination of multiple minerals in environmental samples, including sludge, soils, sediments, and solid wastes, using Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES). This test method quantifies calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, phosphorus (as P2O5), potassium, potassium (as K2O), sodium, sulfur, and zinc.
This test method is an official U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) procedure for the determination of metals and trace elements in a variety of water and waste samples using Inductively Coupled Plasma–Optical Emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES). This test method quantifies soluble calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, sulfur, and zinc.
This test method is used to evaluate the purity and quality of oils, particularly in the food, feed, and biofuel industries. MIU refers to the measurement of three non-fat components commonly present in oils and fats: moisture (M), insolubles (I), and unsaponifiables (U). High levels of MIU can indicate contamination, degradation, or poor refining processes.… Continue reading MIU [Karl Fischer]
