From Introduction: "The following report describes an ultramicro procedure using ANSA as reducing agent. The method is a modification of the method of Kaser and Baker (4). Results obtained with this method are compared to results obtained with the procedure of Dryer, Tammes, and Routh (2) adapted for ultamicro analysis (3). The latter method uses N-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (NPPD) as the reducing agent."
