Progress:

A collaborative study did not meet current AOAC requirements for adoption, although the statistical results were acceptable. After a preliminary review of the study, the AOCS preferred the Food RA/NEN acid digestion method.
This project has been superceded by ad hoc project 1/98: Determination of Phosphorus by ICP. A collaborative study (AOCS/IUPAC) is running during 1998/99, including a comparison of different methods for phosphorus determination.
