Abstract and Summary Iodine values of 121 samples of butter as well as some common oils and fats were determined by both the standard and rapid wijs and Hanus methods. In the rapid method a 2.5% solution of mercuric acetate in acetic acid was used as accelerator. Results of 1 min Wijs and 3 min Hanus methods as compared with 30 min reaction time of standard procedures show close and comparable results.
