Three analysis methods and two extraction technique
s are investigated in this manuscript. Two combina
tions
are not reported. The first omitted combination is
colorimetric analysis of AmOx extracts, because in
this lab work,
it was found that the blue color did not develop in
attempts at colorimetric analysis of AmOx extracti
ons. Searches
of scientific literature yielded no examples of col
orimetric analysis of AmOx extracts for P. The AmO
x extracts
were found to be analyzed by ICP, but when colorime
tric analysis was employed alternate extractants we
re used.

The other omitted combination is ICP analysis of DI
extracts. The AmOx samples were sent out for ICP
analysis as
a part of a different, funded research project. Th
e DI extracts have not been afforded this opportuni
ty. In this
research, DI extracts were analyzed by colorimetry
and MS, and AmOx extracts were analyzed by ICP and
MS.
