Automated Determination of Carbonates in Detergents by Continuous Flow Conductometry

Development of a Flow Injection System with Two Analytical Paths for Ammonium Determination in Soil Extracts by Conductometry

Um sistema de análise química em fluxo com dois percursos analíticos foi desenvolvido para determinação de amônio em extratos de solo por condutometria. A amônia era gerada em linha em um meio alcalino, permeava através de uma membrana hidrofóbica (TPFE), sendo coletada em fluxo de água desionizada que transportava o analito para a cela de condutividade. O módulo de análise compreendia dois per...

Spectrophotometric determination of creatinine by monosegmented continuous-flow analysis

A monosegmented continuous-flow system (MCFS) has been evaluated for determination of creatinine in urine using the Jaffé reaction. The analyser is compact and allows 130 determinations to be performed per hour, with a relative standard deviation of the peak height better than 1.5% (N =10). The results for real samples agree with those obtained by. the standard manual Jaffé procedure and with t...

Determination of aluminum in beverages by automated non-segmented continuous flow analysis with fluorescent detection of the lumogallion complex.

A method for the automated determination of aluminum in a variety of beverages is described. The method utilizes lumogallion as a complexing agent in a buffer solution. The system is very similar to flow-injection analysis (FIA), however, the tubing id is larger than that typically used in FIA. Therefore, the system is best described as non-segmented continuous flow analysis using fluorescence ...

Automated determination of fatty acids in soaps and detergents using the Technicon Auto Analyzer system

Automated development of a kinetic method for the continuous-flow determination of creatinine.

A "stopped-flow" method for the kinetic Jaffé determination of creatinine was developed, with the use of a computer-controlled continuous-flow system. Simplex optimization was used to find conditions of hydroxide and picrate giving maximum sensitivity for creatinine. We used a modified central composite experimental design to evaluate creatinine sensitivity and albumin, glucose, and acetone int...
