Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established 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.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

6 Samples
6.1 Test sample
Prepare an air-equilibrated test sample in accordance with ISO 9599.
NOTE A test sample is not required if predried test portions are to be used (see Annex A).
6.2 Test portion
Taking multiple increments, extract a test portion from the test sample in such a manner that it is
representative of the whole contents of the dish or tray. Weigh to the nearest 0,1 mg approximately 1 g
of test sample. At the same time as the test portion is weighed, weigh test portions for the determination
of hygroscopic moisture in accordance with ISO 9599.
Alternatively, the method specified in Annex A can be used to prepare predried test portions directly
from the laboratory sample.
7 Procedure
7.1 Number of determinations
Carry out the determinations at least in duplicate and as far as possible under repeatability conditions
on each test sample.
NOTE Repeatability conditions exist where mutually independent test results are obtained with the same
method on identical test material in the same laboratory by the same operator using the same equipment within
short intervals of time.
7.2 Blank test
Carry out a blank test in parallel with the analysis using all reagents specified in the determination
but omitting the test portion. The purpose of the blank test in this method is to check the quality of
the reagents. If a significant blank value is obtained as a result of the blank test, check all reagents and
rectify the problem.
7.3 Decomposition of test portion
Transfer the test portion to a 250 ml conical beaker and moisten with 1 ml of water.
All glassware should be washed in ammonia (4.7) and rinsed with water prior to use to remove any
silver adhering to the glass surface.
Add 35 ml of nitric
