1. The importance of a rapid and simple test for the diagnosis of mastitis in cows is a question which has attracted considerable attention on the part of many workers. One such test based on the determination of chlorine in milk by a rapid method has been advocated recently by Rosell.2. The authors of this paper have made a careful examination of this method and compared the results obtained on samples of milk with those given by other methods known to yield reliable and reasonably accurate results.3. The direct titration of chlorine in milk with silver nitrate solution, without the removal of proteins, invariably gives high results, and, moreover, a satisfactory end-point is difficult to obtain.

Abstract The limit of quantity of potassium cyanide was determined as regards the interference with the end point of the titration of potassium thiocyanate with silver nitrate solution. Acetone was found to be a suitable solvent for the separation of potassium cyanide from potassium thiocyanate. A new modified method was proposed for the determination of true free sulfur in vulcanized rubber, by the use of acetone to remove the cyanide which renders obscure the end point of the titration of thiocyanate with silver nitrate solution. The proposed method was applied to the analysis of pure sulfur and some rubber goods, and was ascertained to be accurate and easy to carry out, requiring no special apparatus.

Abstract Collaborative study of the Pro method for determining chlorides in wines and distilled spirits by direct titration with silver nitrate followed by potentiometric reading of the end point gave accurate and reproducible results. The procedure is suitable for repetitious analyses in control laboratories, and it is also adaptable to determinations requiring a high degree of precision. Recoveries of chloride added to samples averaged 99.7%. The method is recommended for adoption as official, first action.

Abstract Method 26.026–26.030 was modified for the analysis of cocoa beans for aflatoxins by inclusion of 3% silver nitrate solution in the extraction solvent mixture. Recoveries of aflatoxins and ochratoxin A added at levels of 5–45 and 20–300 μg/kg, respectively, were satisfactory.

Abstract In order to determine free sulfur in substances like rubber and antimony sulfide, extraction is carried out with a solvent, preferably acetone. After separation from the solvent, the extracted sulfur is converted into the sulfate and weighed as barium sulfate. With the object of making this determination, easier and simpler, it occurred to the author to determine the sulfur in the acetone extract volumetrically, instead of gravimetrically, by utilizing the observed fact that potassium thiocyanate is formed when the acetone extract is boiled with potassium cyanide. Experimental investigation of this subject showed that in the presence of an excess of potassium cyanide, conversion of the sulfur into potassium thiocyanate is quantitative, so that after evaporation of the solvent a mixture of potassium cyanide and potassium thiocyanate remains behind. To determine the potassium thiocyanate in the aqueous solution of these two salts, the method of Schulek (cf. Z. anal. Chem., 65, 433 (1924–25)) was used, which is based on the decomposition of potassium cyanide by formaldehyde. Instead, however, of adding an excess of titrated silver nitrate solution, as recommended by Schulek, and then determining the excess silver by the Volhard method, the titration was carried out directly with the silver nitrate solution, using iron nitrate as indicator, until the blood-red color of ferric thiocyanate had disappeared. In the following table are given the results of determinations by this procedure.

We report on the green synthesis of silver nanoparticles utilizing theP.purpureumleaf extract. Controlling the surface plasmon absorption of silver nanoparticles was achieved by regulating the amount of extract concentration and the molarity of silver nitrate solution. The surface plasmon absorption peak is found at around 430nm. The surface plasmon absorption peak have shifted to lower wavelength as the amount of extract is increased, while plasmon absorption peak shifts on a higher wavelength as the concentration of silver nitrate is increased before it stabilized at 430nm. This can be explained in terms of the available nucleation sites promoted by the plant extract as well as the available silver ions present in silver nitrate solution.

Although the action of potassium persulphate on silver nitrate solution was one of the first persulphate reactions observed (vol. xviii. p. 64), I had not until lately paid any special attention to the behaviour of the ammonium salt in this respect. It appears, however, that in the latter case there are additional actions of great interest, not possible with the potassium salt. A general description of these will be given now, but there are still some points deserving of further investigation.
