DETERMINATION OF IODINE.
BY ATHERTON SEIDELL.
Of the methods which have been proposed and used for the
determination of small amounts of iodine in such substances as
thyroid glands, blood, muscle, and various animal and plant
form solution, from which it is seen that I 52- = o. 102 per I cc.

or 1.02 milligram of iodine equivalent to IO cc. of the standard
Fuchsin S solution. Similar readings were made with other
Fuchsin S solutions prepared fresh and allowed to stand various
lengths of time and it was found that the desired tint could be

of solution it was also found advantageous to prepare a series of
test tubes with gradually increasing intensities of the pink color
corresponding to 0.025, 0.05, 0.075, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 and 0.25
milligram of iodine per 5 cc., and also in smaller test tubes a
series corresponding to 0.01, 0.02, 0.03 and 0.04 milligram
iodine per I cc. Provided with such standards it is a simple
matter to shake out the liberated iodine from the solutions of
the melt of the samples examined, with I, 5 or IO cc. of chloro-
