Animal Feeding Stuffs – Determination of Crude Ash
1 Scope
This Standard specifies a method for the determination of crude ash of animal feeding stuffs.
2 Normative References
The provisions in following documents become the provisions of this Standard through
reference in this Standard. For dated references, the subsequent amendments (excluding
corrigendum) or revisions do not apply to this Standard, however, parties who reach an
agreement based on this Standard are encouraged to study if the latest versions of these
documents are applicable. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document
applies.
GB/T 14699.1 Feeding Stuffs – Sampling (GB/T 14699.1-2005, ISO 6497:2002, IDT)
GB/T 20195 Animal Feeding Stuffs - Preparation of Test Samples (GB/T 20195-2006, ISO

3 Term and Definition
For the purposes of this Standard, the following term and definition applies.
3.1 Crude ash
Residue obtained after incineration at 550 °C under the conditions specified in this Standard.
4 Principle
The organic matter in a test portion is decomposed by incineration, then the ash obtained is
weighed.
NOTE: the ash is expressed by the mass fraction.
5 Apparatus
Usual laboratory apparatus and, in particular, the following.
5.1 Analytical balance, capable of weighing to the nearest 0.001 g.
5.2 Muffle furnace, electrically heated, thermostatically controlled, and provided with a
pyrometer. The furnace, when set at 550 °C, shall be capable of being controlled in such a way
that the temperature in the places where the incineration dishes will be placed will not differ by
more than 20 °C from this set temperature.
5.3 Drying oven, capable of being controlled at (103 ± 2) °C.
5.4 Hot-plate or gas burner
5.5 Incineration dish, of platinum or platinum-gold alloy (e.g., 10 % Pt, 90 % Au) or of other
material unaffected by the conditions of the test, preferably rectangular with a surface area of
about 20 cm2 and a height of about 2.5 cm. For samples that are inclined to swell on
carbonization, use dishes with a surface area of about 30 cm2 and a height of about 3 cm.
5.6 Desiccator, provided with an effective desiccant.
6 Sampling
It is important that the laboratory receive a sample which is truly representative and has not
been damaged or changed during transport or storage.
Store the sample in such a way that deterioration and change in composition are prevented.
A recommended sampling method is given in GB/T 14699.1.
7 Procedure
7.1 Preparation of test sample
Prepare the test sample in accordance with GB/T 20195.
7.2 Test portion
Weigh, to the nearest 0.001 g, about 5 g of the test sample (7.1) into the incineration dish (5.5),
previously heated for at least 30 min in the muffle furnace (5.2) set at 550 °C, cooled in the
desiccator (5.6) and weighed to the nearest 0.001 g.
7.3 Determination
Place the incineration dish containing the test portion (7.2) on a hot plate or over a gas burner
(5.4) and heat progressively until the test portion has carbonized. Transfer the dish to the muffle
furnace (5.2), previously heated to 550 °C, and leave it for 3 h. Inspect visually whether the ash
is free from carbonaceous particles. If it is not, replace the dish in the furnace and heat for
another 1 h. If carbonaceous particles are still visible, or if there is doubt as to whether they are
present, allow the ash to cool, moisten with distilled water, evaporate carefully to dryness in
the oven (5.3), set at (103±2) °C. Then replace the dish in the furnace and heat for another 1 h.
Allow the dish to cool in the desiccator to room temperature then weigh rapidly to the nearest
0.001 g.
NOTE: The crude ash obtained by the above procedure may be used subsequently for the determination
of ash insoluble in hydrochloric acid (see ISO 5985).
Carry out two determinations on test portions from the same test sample.
8 Expression of Results
The crude ash, W, expressed as a mass fraction in percent of the test sample, it shall be
calculated as per Formula (1):
Where:
m2 - is the mass, in grams, of the dish and the crude ash.
m0 - is the mass, in grams, of the empty dish;
m1 - is the mass, in grams, of the dish containing the test portion.
Take as the result the arithmetic mean of the two determinations, provided that the requirement
for repeatability (see 9.2) is satisfied. Report the result to the nearest 0.1 % (mass fraction).
9 Precision
9.1 Interlaboratory tests
Details of interlaboratory tests on the precision of the method are given in Annex A. The values
derived from these tests may not be applicable to concentration ranges and matrices other than
those given.
9.2 Repeatability
