Precipitate detection

Precipitate detection methods typically use light scattering techniques such as nephelometry, flow cytometry, and turbidity measurements to determine the amount of the precipitate formed during the incubation process. A major advantage with these types of techniques is the availability of particle size distribution and aggregation information.

There are a variety of methods for determining solubility in a relatively high-throughput manner but of these, two methods occur most often. These can be classified as supernatant concentration and precipitate detection. ... 

During the titrations a green color was first apparent at the point of inflection of the pH change (R = 4.25), and it reached its maximum intensity at 4.32. The last trace of precipitate detectable by eye disappeared between R = 4.4 and 4.5.

The Zond VD - 96 is intended for the detection of cracks, precipitates, inclusions etc. and corrosive defects with the preliminary estimation of their depth in various objects of magnetic and non - magnetic steels, non-ferrous and refractory metals and welds including coatings. 

Shallow donors (or acceptors) add new electrons to tire CB (or new holes to tire VB), resulting in a net increase in tire number of a particular type of charge carrier. The implantation of shallow donors or acceptors is perfonned for tliis purjDose. But tliis process can also occur unintentionally. For example, tire precipitation around 450°C of interstitial oxygen in Si generates a series of shallow double donors called tliennal donors. As-grown GaN crystal are always heavily n type, because of some intrinsic shallow-level defect. The presence and type of new charge carriers can be detected by Flail effect measurements. 

Prolonged oxidation of any phosphorus compound, followed by standing in water, converts it to phosphate(V). This can then be detected by the formation of a yellow precipitate when heated with...

Detection of Potassium in the presence of Sodium. Add a cold saturated aqueous solution of sodium picrate to a solution of potassium chloride. A rapid precipitation of the less soluble potassium picrate occurs, even from a i°o solution of potassium chloride. 

Place 45 g. (43 ml.) of benzal chloride (Section IV,22), 250 ml. of water and 75 g. of precipitated calcium carbonate (1) in a 500 ml. round-bottomed flask fltted with a reflux condenser, and heat the mixture for 4 hours in an oil bath maintained at 130°. It is advantageous to pass a current of carbon dioxide through the apparatus. Filter off the calcium salts, and distil the filtrate in steam (Fig. II, 40, 1) until no more oil passes over (2). Separate the benzaldehyde from the steam distillate by two extractions with small volumes of ether, distil off most of the ether on a water bath, and transfer the residual benzaldehyde to a wide-mouthed bottle or flask. Add excess of a concentrated solution of sodium bisulphite in portions with stirring or shaking stopper the vessel and shake vigorously until the odour of benzaldehyde can no longer be detected. Filter the paste of the benzaldehyde bisulphite compound at the pump... 

The acetone test reagent consists of a 0 1 per cent, solution of 2 4-dinitro-phenylhydrazine and is prepared as follows Dissolve 0-25 g. of 2 4-dinitrophenyl-hydrazine in 60 ml. of water and 42 ml. of concentrated hydrochloric acid by warming on a water bath cool the clear yellow solution and dilute to 250 ml. with water. The acetone test is considered negative when 5 ml. of the reagent and 4-5 drops of the distillate give no cloudiness or precipitate of acetone 2 4-dinitro-phenylhydrazone within 30 seconds. After a negative test is obtained, it is stron y recommended that the mixture in the flask be refluxed for 5-10 minutes with complete condensation and then to collect a few drops of distillate for another test. If no acetone is now detected, the reduction is complete. 

Sulphur, as sulphide ion, is detected by precipitation as black lead sulphide with lead acetate solution and acetic acid or with sodium plumbite solution (an alkaLine solution of lead acetate). Halogens are detected as the characteristic silver halides by the addition of silver nitrate solution and dilute nitric acid the interfering influence of sulphide and cyanide ions in the latter tests are discussed under the individual elements.

Hydantoin itself can be detected ia small concentrations ia the presence of other NH-containing compounds by paper chromatography followed by detection with a mercury acetate—diphenylcarba2one spray reagent. A variety of analytical reactions has been developed for 5,5-disubstituted hydantoias, due to their medicinal iaterest. These reactions are best exemplified by reference to the assays used for 5,5-diphenylhydantoiQ (73—78), most of which are based on their cycHc ureide stmcture. Identity tests iaclude the foUowiag (/) the Zwikker reaction, consisting of the formation of a colored complex on treatment with cobalt(II) salts ia the presence of an amine (2) formation of colored copper complexes and (3) precipitation on addition of silver(I) species, due to formation of iasoluble salts at N. ... 

Qualitative Analysis. Nitric acid may be detected by the classical brown-ring test, the copper-turnings test, the reduction of nitrate to ammonia by active metal or alloy, or the nitrogen precipitation test. Nitrous acid or nitrites interfere with most of these tests, but such interference may be eliminated by acidifying with sulfuric acid, adding ammonium sulfate crystals, and evaporating to alow volume. 

The sodium hydroxide is titrated with HCl. In a thermometric titration (92), the sibcate solution is treated first with hydrochloric acid to measure Na20 and then with hydrofluoric acid to determine precipitated Si02. Lower sibca concentrations are measured with the sibcomolybdate colorimetric method or instmmental techniques. X-ray fluorescence, atomic absorption and plasma emission spectroscopies, ion-selective electrodes, and ion chromatography are utilized to detect principal components as weU as trace cationic and anionic impurities. Eourier transform infrared, ft-nmr, laser Raman, and x-ray... 

Qualitative. The classic method for the quaUtative determination of silver ia solution is precipitation as silver chloride with dilute nitric acid and chloride ion. The silver chloride can be differentiated from lead or mercurous chlorides, which also may precipitate, by the fact that lead chloride is soluble ia hot water but not ia ammonium hydroxide, whereas mercurous chloride turns black ia ammonium hydroxide. Silver chloride dissolves ia ammonium hydroxide because of the formation of soluble silver—ammonia complexes. A number of selective spot tests (24) iaclude reactions with /)-dimethy1amino-henz1idenerhodanine, ceric ammonium nitrate, or bromopyrogaHol red [16574-43-9]. Silver is detected by x-ray fluorescence and arc-emission spectrometry. Two sensitive arc-emission lines for silver occur at 328.1 and 338.3 nm. 

Analytical and Test Methods. An aqueous solution of sodium thiosulfate forms a white precipitate with hydrochloric acid and evolves sulfur dioxide gas which is detected by its characteristic odor. The white precipitate turns yellow, iadicatiug the presence of sulfur. The addition of ferric chloride to sodium thiosulfate solutions produces a dark violet color which quickly disappears. 

In the field, cassiterite ore is usually recognized by its high density (7.04 g/cm ), low solubiUty in acid and alkaline solutions, and extreme hardness.

Polymerization-grade chloroprene is typically at least 99.5% pure, excluding inert solvents that may be present. It must be substantially free of peroxides, polymer [9010-98-4], and inhibitors. A low, controlled concentration of inhibitor is sometimes specified. It must also be free of impurities that are acidic or that will generate additional acidity during emulsion polymerization. Typical impurities are 1-chlorobutadiene [627-22-5] and traces of chlorobutenes (from dehydrochlorination of dichlorobutanes produced from butenes in butadiene [106-99-0]), 3,4-dichlorobutene [760-23-6], and dimers of both chloroprene and butadiene. Gas chromatography is used for analysis of volatile impurities. Dissolved polymer can be detected by turbidity after precipitation with alcohol or determined gravimetrically. Inhibitors and dimers can interfere with quantitative determination of polymer either by precipitation or evaporation if significant amounts are present.
