The analytical method or process of measuring and determining the quantity or concentration of bromine in a chemical sample, typically using titration.
From bromo- (bromine) + -metry (from Greek metron meaning measure). Created in the 19th century as analytical chemistry developed systematic measurement techniques.
Bromometry was essential for the pharmaceutical industry—knowing exactly how much bromine was in a compound meant the difference between an effective medicine and a toxic dose, especially when bromides were used as sedatives.
