This fact limits the use of such methods in man, and prohibits them in small animals. The present communication describes a micro-analytical technique which will yield duplicate analyses from 2 cc. of blood plasma or serum. The method involves the catalytic effect of iodide upon the reduction of ceric ion. The technique is colorimetric and is adaptable to standard photoelectric colorimeters such as are available in many laboratories at the present time.}, issn = {0022-3565}, URL = {https://jpet.aspetjournals.org/content/81/4/331}, eprint = {https://jpet.aspetjournals.org/content/81/4/331.full.pdf}, journal = {Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics} }
