Abstract
Abstract A collaborative study was undertaken this year on the DMAB method for the colorimetric determination of urea in dry corn samples, which was compared with method 22.023-22.024. The DMAB method uses p-dimethylami-nobenzaldehyde as the color producer for spectrophotometry measurement. Mean values showed excellent recovery by both the official procedure and the DMAB procedure. Over-all standard deviation and coefficient of variation for all three dry corn samples containing urea indicated greater precision and accuracy by the DMAB procedure; collaborators expressed preference for this method. Further work is recommended to finalize the determination of urea in feeds.
