摘要:
A process for the rapid extraction, separation, and detection of free and total sulfites in food is disclosed. The process comprises the steps of (a) extracting sulfites from a sample in the presence of a medium having a selected pH to produce an extractant; (b) filtering the extractant; (c) subjecting the filtered extractant to anion exclusion chromatography to produce a sulfite-containing effluent; and (d) detecting the proportion of sulfites in the effluent. The process may be used either to determine free sulfites (by performing extraction in the presence of an acid medium), or to determine total sulfites (by performing extraction in the presence of an alkaline medium). The process of the present invention may be used to determine sulfite levels of 1.0 ppm or less.
摘要:
A coated waveguide holder-humidifier to supply moisture in the case of moisture-sensitive reactions in order that quantitative results might be obtained with a gradient light analytical detector which will quantitatively measure atmospheric contaminants by comparing changes in light transmission through the coated waveguides before and after exposure. The coated waveguide holder-humidifier comprises a container, a porous material capable of absorbing water and desorbing water vapor mounted within the container, means to hold one or more waveguides within the container, and one or more openings in the container to allow fluid (liquid or gas) sample to contact a waveguide. Also, a method for improving the sensitivity of gaseous reactants on a waveguide where the reaction is moisture sensitive comprising humidifying the environment of said waveguide providing an atmosphere which has a substantially constant humidity normally in the range of 85 to 100% at which said reaction is not appreciably affected by changes in ambient relative humidity.
摘要:
The flow rate of the oxygen-containing gas to a process for the oxidation of the hydrogen sulfide in a sour gas to sulfur is regulated responsive to the lower of the sour gas pressure signal and a signal representing the value of the sour gas flow rate as modified by the ratio of hydrogen sulfide to sulfur dioxide in the gaseous reaction effluent, to maintain the desired ratio of hydrogen sulfide to oxygen fed to the process. The sour gas flow rate can be regulated responsive to the higher of the sour gas pressure signal and the oxygen-containing gas flow rate signal.
摘要:
A method of simultaneously measuring the quantitative presence of a plurality of atmospheric pollutants and apparatus for performing the measurement is disclosed. Specific dry reagents which react with particular pollutants to be measured are exposed in a staged array according to their reactivity to a known volume of ambient air at a location to be measured. The reaction products are later analyzed to obtain a quantitative measure of the pollutants present in the sample.
