Analysis of mercurial preservatives in bacterins, vaccines, and antisera by atomic absorption spectrophotometry
Applied Microbiology
|June 1, 1974
Abstract:
A flameless atomic absorption method was developed for the determination of mercurial preservatives in biologicals. The assay was based on a quantitative determination of the mercury content of these preservatives. This method was used to analyze a variety of samples and yielded reproducible results with satisfactory recoveries. The procedure is presented in a simplified block diagram and described in detail relating its suitability for routine assay of large numbers of samples.
