Abstract
IN the previous volumes of this comprehensive work, the general aim has been to deal with separate branches of chemistry in a particular volume. Thus, such subjects as sugars, starches, soaps, explosives, essential oils, etc., require less than one volume each, for their detailed study. The subject of protein analysis, however, receives much wider consideration. The proteins generally have been dealt with in the eighth volume and in the present volume of 600 pages the whole book is given over solely to the examination of proteins of plants, milk and meat. This will necessitate the issue of a new volume for special subjects, such as hæmoglobin, albuminoids, structural proteins, etc.
Alien's Commercial Organic Analysis: a Treatise on the Properties, Modes of Analysis, and Proximate Analytical Examination of the various Organic Chemicals and Products employed in the Arts, Manufactures, Medicine, etc. Vol. 9: The Proteins of Plants, the Proteins of Milk, Milk, Milk Products, Meat and Meat Products.
