[Plant-education] oxalate assay

[Cote, Gary G]

Hello all,
Does anyone know of a method for assaying the level of oxalate in a plant tissue.  There used to be a kit (or kits) available from a number of vendors (Fisher, Sigma, etc.), but we've called a number of places and no one has it any more.

Any leads to a kit, or how to make our own assay would be appreciated.
Gary
