NATIONAL FOREWORD
This Indian Standard which is identical to ISO 16634-1 : 2008 'Food products - Determination of the total nitrogen content by combustion according to the Dumas principle and calculation of the crude protein content - Part 1: Oilseeds and animal feeding stuffs' issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on recommendation of the Oils and Oilseeds Sectional Committee and approval of the Food and Agriculture Division Council.
ISO 16634 is published in two parts under the general title 'Food products - Determination of the total nitrogen content by combustion according to the Dumas principle and calculation of the crude protein content'. ISO 16634-2 : 2016 specifies a method for the determination of the total nitrogen content and the calculation of the crude protein content of cereals, pulses and milled cereal products and has been identically adopted as Indian Standard under single numbering system (IS/ISO 16634-2 : 2016).
The text of ISO standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:
a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, they should be read as 'Indian Standard'; and
b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
