The digesting portion of the apparatus Allison (1) described was modified to permit the determination of both organic and inorganic carbon on a single sample. The accuracy attained with the apparatus was sufficiently high to indicate that it can be used with confidence in routine analyses. The modified apparatus has several features that make it more convenient to use and that result in a saving of time and cost of analyses.
