Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Detection of the Common Food Adulterants
Its aim is to bring together in one small book the best and simplest qualitative tests for all the common food adulter ants. It contains a brief statement of the adulterants likely to be found and the reason for their use. It is hoped that it will be specially valuable to chemistry teachers in furnishing excellent supplementary work in qualitative analysis. But it is hoped that it will find its greatest use fulness in contributing something toward the great pure food reform.
It is impossible to make due mention of all the sources from which these various tests have been collected, but where possible, the author's name has been associated with the test.
