A modified fluorometric method for the determination of thiamine in food is describcd. The procedure is simple, reproducible, does not demand costly outfit and chemicals and is not susceptible to interference. The recovery of added thiamine is good.

β¦ Synopsis
An improved method for emission spectrometric determination of 15N content with a small amount of nitrogen (2 pg, minimum) is described. Ammonium nitrogen and organic nitrogen are converted to N, gas by the method of Rittenberg and by the method of Dumas, respectively. The N, gas is purified, introduced into a MacLeod vacuum gauge for measuring the total quantity, and then an appropriate amount of the N, gas is collected in a discharge tube containing a molecular sieve 5A so as to give a gas pressure of about 5 TOIT. Emission is stable and reproducible, and 15N abundance can be determined with an error less than 0.01 and 0.10 atom% at a natural abundance level of 0.366 and at 9 atom%, respectively. Predetermination of N content of samples is not required.
