    Abstract:
    Methods are described for determination of crude protein, phosphorus, calcium, iron, and magnesium in feeds, using an automated microprocessor-based stopped-flow analyzer. Crude protein is determined by a reaction-rate procedure based on the ammonia-sodium phenate-hypochloride Berthelot reaction. Phosphorus determination is based on a phosphomolybdenum blue reaction-rate method. o-Cresolphthalein complexone, ferrozine, and calmagite are used as colorimetric reagents for calcium, iron, and magnesium, respectively. The methods are precise with relative standard deviations less than 1%, rapid with analysis rates of 110-266 samples per hour, sensitive, and require less than 1 mL sample and reagent volumes. Results for feed samples are comparable with those obtained by official AOAC methods.
