In a few cases there was also a colorimetric option and the truly sophisticated chemist might even venture into an electrolytic deposition of copper or silver. Scientists of that era who submitted samples for analysis were keenly aware of the limitations of choice and the lengthy time required for analysis, particularly where multiple or complex determinations were required.", pages = "312-317", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/sas/sas/1979/00000033/00000003/art00022", doi = "doi:10.1366/0003702794925804", keyword = "Professional relations" }
