| Popis: |
The novel, automated, multi-pumping flow system (MPFS) for online calibration and determination of nitrate in surface water is presented for the first time. The system was equipped with micropumps of three different nominal volumes (10, 20, and 50 µL). As a result, it was possible to prepare from one standard, directly in a flow system, up to seven standard solutions. Determination of nitrate was conducted in stop-flow conditions and is based on a commercially available ion selective electrode (ISE) application. It was found that the linearity and slope of the calibration graphs depend mainly on the characteristics of the ISE. The obtained results were very repeatable, owing to the high precision of the micro-pumps used. The R.S.D. for the stroke volume of each micro-pump was below 1%. The accuracy of the method was checked through determination of nitrate in surface water samples. The obtained results were compared with those of the reference method (photometric Hach cuvette tests). It was found that, at a 96% confidence level, the difference between the results obtained by the proposed method and the reference method was statistically insignificant. The accuracy of the method was confirmed through the determination of nitrate in Certified Reference Material. The relative deviation (R.D.) of the measured and the certified concentrations was 5%. |
