Serum Iron Determination

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 1956
Abstract 1. A sensitive, reproducible method for serum iron determination has been developed employing extraction of serum acid hydrolysate with isoamyl alcohol and development of a highly colored ferrous complex of 4,7-diphenyl-1, 1O-phenanthroline for quantitative photometric measurement of iron. 2. The method gives good
