Simple method for carbon determination in microbiological experiments.
A wet combustion method for the carbon determination was developed. It has been proved that the method can be successfully used for the determination of biochemical changes in microbe cultures, the soil, in composts, in farmyard manures etc. The samples are combusted in evacuated flasks by means of chromic sulphuric mixture, and the CO(2) evolved is determined interferometrically.
