Nitric oxide chemiluminescence monitoring with

The calibration of a chemiluminescent analyzer using these standards is verified when both the nitrogen dioxide and nitric oxide channels respond similarly to charges from the (ylinder of diluted nitric oxide. Agreement with the response of the nitric oxide channel should also be obtained when the standard nitric oxide mixture is titrated with a previously established source of ozone. Chemiluminescent instruments have simplified monitoring of nitrogen oxides, but accurate calibration requires well-trained personnel. 

During the course of the irradiations, the concentrations of the following variables were monitored oxidants (Mast coulometric ozone meter) (4), condensation nuclei with radii greater than lO " cm (G.E. Type CN small particle detector) (5), ozone (Regener chemiluminescent ozone meter (6), nitrogen dioxide and nitric oxide (Saltzman method) (7), and a-pinene (Perkin Elmer model 800 gas chromatograph).
