TL;DR

The manual method of Highashi and Peters for the determination of inulin has been adapted to autoanalysis with the standard AutoAnalyzer and results showed that protein-free filtrates of serum were prepared by the Smogyi method than trichloracetic acid.

Abstract

Abstract The manual method of Highashi and Peters for the determination of inulin has been adapted to autoanalysis with the standard AutoAnalyzer. Protein-free filtrates of serum were prepared by the Smogyi method rather than trichloracetic acid. Recoveries of inulin added to human serum and urine averaged 101 ± 2 per cent.
