Conclusion
The automated flow-injection analyser can be used for spectrophotometric methods with accurate and precise results and with a high throughput.
Supporting Evidence
- The system demonstrated excellent long-term stability with a total RSD of 1.37 over 100 measurements.
- Precision tests showed relative standard deviations ranging from 0.35 to 1.37 for various sample analyses.
- The automated system allows for high throughput, performing up to 200 measurements per hour.
Takeaway
This study describes a machine that can quickly and accurately analyze samples using light. It's like a super-fast science helper for testing liquids.
Methodology
The system uses a microcomputer to control the flow of samples and reagents, measuring absorbance peaks to analyze the samples.
Limitations
The system is designed for specific types of analyses and may require modifications for different detectors.
