Preparation Note: | Sample Preparation • This ampule contains a concentrate for preparation of a solution that can be analyzed for bromide, chloride, fluoride, nitrate nitrogen, nitrite nitrogen, sulfate and orthophosphate phosphorus in water. • To prepare solution, partially fill a 1000 mL volumetric flask with reagent-grade water (near 20 °C). • Open ampule PE1060-20ML (be careful to avoid cuts on glass) and transfer 10.0 mL of the concentrate into the volumetric flask. • Fill to volume (1000 mL) with reagent-grade water and mix well. • The sample is now ready for immediate analysis. Note - A blank of reagent-grade water should be analyzed concurrently for background correction. |
