Stärke und Stärkederivate - Bestimmung des Stickstoffgehalts nach dem Kjeldahl-Verfahren - Spektrometrisches Verfahren (ISO 5378:1978)
Diese Internationale Norm legt ein spektralphotometrisches Verfahren zur Bestimmung des Stickstoffgehalts nach dem Kjeldahl-Verfahren fest. Das Verfahren ist bei Stärke und Stärkeerzeugnissen anwendbar, deren Stickstoffgehalt voraussichtlich weniger als 0,025% (Massenanteil) beträgt.
Amidons, fécules et produits dérivés - Dosage de l'azote selon la méthode de Kjeldahl - Méthode spectrophotométrique (ISO 5378:1978)
La présente Norme internationale spécifie une méthode spectrophotométrique de dosage de l'azote selon la méthode de Kjeldahl, dans les amidons, fécules et leurs produits dérivés, dont la teneur présumée en azote est inférieure à 0,025 % (m/m).1)NOTE - Dans les amidons, fécules et dérivés n'ayant pas reçu d'adjonctions azotées, l'azote est présent essentiellement sous forme de protides et/ou d'amino-acides.

FOREWORD
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation
of national Standards institutes (ISO member bodies). The work of developing
International Standards is carried out through ISO technical committees. Every
member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been set
up has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated
to the member bodies for approval before their acceptance as International
Standards by the ISO Council.
International Standard ISO 5378 was developed by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 93, Starch (including derivatives and by-products), and was circulated
to the member bodies in March 1976.
It has been approved by the member bodies of the following countries :
Australia Germany Romania
Austria Hungary Spain
Chile I reland Turkey
Czechoslovakia Mexico United Kingdom
Finland Netherlands Yugoslavia
France Philippines
The member body of the following country expressed disapproval of the document
on technical grounds :
