A low-cost light-scattering detector for the flow-injection nephelometric determination of sulfate.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple low-cost flow-through light-scattering detector was developed for determining the particle mass concentration in colloidal suspensions. Employing a laser pointer as a light source and a photodiode IC as a light sensor, the detector was shown to have good sensitivity, yet was small and battery operated. The detector was demonstrated to be effective for the flow-injection nephelometric determination of sulfate by precipitation as barium sulfate.

Nephelometric determination of micro amounts of nucleic acids with protamine sulfate.
Nucleic acids can form large particle complexes with protamine sulfate by electrostatic forces, which results in strong light scattering. Based on this, a nephelometric method is described for sensitive and convenient determination of nucleic acids with protamine sulfate by using a common spectrofluorimeter. Maximum light scattering is produced in the range of pH 2.2-4.4 with the same excitatio...

The detector, a multi-channel photometric detector, described in this paper was developed using multi-wavelength LEDs (light emitting diode) and phototransistors for absorbance measurement controlled by an Intel 8031 8-bit single chip microcomputer. Up to four flow cells can be attached to the detector. The LEDs and phototransistors are both inexpensive, and reliable. The results given by the d...
متن کاملLow cost air quality monitors to evaluate nanosized particulate matter. A pilot study
Particulate matter is defined as a mixture of airborne solid particles and liquid droplets that can be inhaled and may cause serious health problems. Such elements are currently measured utilizing air quality monitoring devices that provide information on PM 10 and PM 2.5 levels giving information on pollution levels. However, many difficulties are encountered in the determination of nanosized ...
متن کاملA Novel Type of Tri-Colour Light-Emitting-Diode-Based Spectrometric Detector for Low-Budget Flow-Injection Analysis
In this paper we describe a low-cost spectrometric detector that can be easily assembled in a laboratory for less than €80 with a minimal number of optical components and which has proved sensitive and flexible enough for real-life applications. The starting point for the idea to construct this small, compact low-cost spectrometric detector was the decision to use a tri-colour light-emitting di...
