The paper deals with critical analysis of experiments on thermodiffusion in ferrocolloids. The observed magnetic Soret effect is significantly stronger than that predicted theoretically. It is shown that the main reason for that is the influence of a magnetic field on mass diffusion. Besides, some measurements are effected by uncontrolled thermal and solutal magnetic convection. Even in porous media, when macroscopic convection is depressed, thermodiffusion can be disturbed by microconvective mass transfer induced by particle magnetophoresis on filter grains.
