A modified methylene blue test for estimating MBAS concentrations has been developed that reduces the number of extractions from seven to two and also reduces the interference caused by chloroform‐extractable pollutants. This simplified methylene blue method is recommended for use by military personnel or treatment‐plant operators with limited training in chemistry.
