The Azide Modification of the Winkler Method is the standard test for dissolved oxygen. It uses a buret and 0.025 N sodium thiosulfate. The standard APHA reagents in solution form also are available. In the analysis, manganous ion reacts with the dissolved oxygen present in the alkaline solution to form a manganese (IV) oxide hydroxide flocculent. Azide is added at this time to suppress interference from any nitrite present which would react with the iodide. The solution is then acidified and the manganese (IV) floc is reduced by iodide to produce free iodine as I3- in proportion to the oxygen concentration. The liberated iodine is then titrated to the starch-iodide end point.
