Abstract
A new, rapid method for the determination of cellulose has been investigated, and has been shown to yield a fraction composed mainly of hexosan. The method has been shown to be applicable to feeding-stuffs and faecal material, with a satisfactory degree of accuracy.This publication has 9 references indexed in Scilit:
