Vitamin in animal feed

In 1935, the Committee was renamed the Analytical Methods Committee (AMC) but the main analytical work was carried out by sub-committees composed of analysts with specialised knowledge of the particular application area. The earliest topics selected for study were milk products, essential oils, soap and the determination of metals in food colourants. Later applications included the determination of fluorine, crude fibre, total solids in tomato products, trade effluents and trace elements, and vitamins in animal feeding stuffs. These later topics led to the publication of standard methods in a separate booklet. All standard and recommended methods were collated and published in a volume entitled Bibliography of Standard, Tentative and Recommended or Recognised Methods of Analysis in 1951. This bibliography was expanded to include full details of the method under the title Official, Standardised and Recommended Methods of Analysis in 1976 with a second edition in 1983 and a third edition in 1994.
