    Hi All:
    I am looking for some feedback on the relative value of 3 methods of testing for Ammonia in Crabmeat:
    1. Nessler Reaction
    2. AOAC 973.25, Colorimetric Method
    3. Decomposition by Sensory Evaluation using trained personnel

    We are not concerned about doing so many samples in a day that sensory fatigue is an issue.
    Thanks in advance for your always great feed back!
    Toni
