Abstract
Concentration of polyethylene glycol (PEG) has been measured satisfactorily using only 0·25 ml of intestinal aspirate (containing approximately 2·5 mg/l PEG). Hyden's turbidimetric assay was modified by reading turbidity at 420 mμ. The addition of extra protein was found to facilitate filtration after protein precipitation.
