14. The second voltage sample and total volume added to the sample are also stored in memory by the computer. Consequently, many titration procedures still require a skilled analyst to interpret the point when the indicator's color change signals the endpoint of the reaction. This iteration is repeated until the first derivative or slope of the titration curve begins increase. (2012).

The colorless endpoint is eventually approached when the slope begins to decrease. The colorless endpoint is eventually approached when the slope begins to decrease. Referring to FIG. 14. Titrations are done to determine the strength of a solution or the concentration of an unknown substance in a solution. If the first derivative remains close to zero or does not increase (if the voltage signal does not increase), then the computer increases the volume increment for the next pump cycle. In contrast, the output of the colorimetric detector is nearly constant until the endpoint is reached. Thus, during a titration, microprocessor 310 activates magnetic stirrer 355 either automatically or through a user command via user interface 390.

A/D converter communicates with microcontroller 10 via signal S35. The solution containing the indicator can then be titrated to a colorless endpoint using the titrator according to the present invention when interfaced with a computer containing appropriate control software. Since the total volume of the titrant added to the sample at endpoint may be measured and the stoichiometry of the reaction mechanism is known then is a simple matter to determine the exact quantity of reactant within the titrated sample (i.e. For manual choice of LED, if a phenolphthalein (pink) indicator is used, the blue current source 20 is chosen by the user and blue LED 35 is powered for this particular titration. The developed method is relatively simple and faster than the colorimetric titration technique. In fact, there are titration methods that depend on color endpoints (such as dissolved oxygen determination by the azide modification of the Winkler Method) that have not been adapted to titration instrumentation. METTLER TOLEDO Titration Guide 7 Avoiding Titration Errors 3. That is, the host computer can support the device with the software instructions and the titration device can be readily adapted to new applications (many different indicators can be accommodated depending on what constituent the user needs to detect in his solution). Finally, the endpoint may be called by searching through the table of data for the total volume corresponding to the first occurring first derivative value equal to zero or within some preset value of zero.

This introduces much human error into the titration. Base 145 holds magnetic stirrer unit 55 under recess 59. 5 is a MAX274 chip from Maxim, although there are other similar chips available from other manufacturers. Blank samples are prepared so that you have a measure of the amount that needs always to be added to or subtracted from the end point (the titration error) to achieve the equivalence point. Filtering means filters the transmitted signal, such that a center frequency of the filtering means matches the modulation frequency of the radiant energy means. The methods used to control the pump during the titration and to call the end point are discussed below. Signal S80 can then be utilized by other titration equipment to determine the endpoint of a titration using the colorimeter of the present invention. Colorimetric assays use reagents that undergo a measurable color change in the presence of the analyte. Mount, Laser Detection System Disclosure to Clemson University, pp. 24. The second derivative of the titration curve may be used to determine the actual endpoint of the titration. The most difficult part of this procedure is determining when the endpoint of the titration actually occurs so that the volume may be measured. The RS-232 interface communicates with the computer via an asynchronous serial port. Potentiometric titration is a technique similar to direct titration of a redox reaction. Also, color detection is highly reliable and samples may be processed much faster than with manual titration techniques. A/D converter 90 can typically be a 2 channel 16 bit A/D converter such as the AD 7710 module from Analog Devices. 4, 5, and 7. FIG. It also does not have a 50% duty cycle.

Transparent container 350 can be a standard 250 ml beaker, a test tube, or any other container that allows visible light to pass through it. A similar exercise is repeated here for acid gas loading analysis by standard pH and colorimetric titration methods. Colloid Titration. This preset minimum volume can be the smallest increment of titrant that can be reliably delivered by the pump for one iteration. the colorimetric method rose with rising oxygen concentration, but the percentage error remained approximately constant. This corresponding titrant volume is used to compute the concentration of the dissolved constituent by known methods. The total result of the circuit is to produce a signal with the correct modulation frequency and a 50% duty cycle. Any color indicator can be used, depending of course on the dissolved constituent of interest, ranging the visible spectrum from phenolphthalein red to iodine-starch blue. The titration is per-formed in the presence of an indicator which is red when there are calcium and magnesium ions and blue in their absence.

For example, to perform water and waste water analysis, acidity can be determined by methyl orange, bromphenol blue and total acidity by phenolphthalein, alkalinity can be determined by a bromcresol green-methyl red mixed indicator, and by phenolphthalein or bromphenol blue, carbon dioxide concentration can be determined with phenolphthalein indicator, iodometric titration methods that use starch as an indicator include: free chlorine, chromate, dissolved oxygen, sulfite and others and chloride concentration can be determined by using diphenylcarbazone as an indicator. After the most negative peak is detected, the computer under software instruction looks at the second derivative data at each iteration after the most negative peak for the second derivative value stored in the table which is closest to zero or equal to zero. The current generation of automated titrators are severely limited because these instruments have only the capability of detecting color changes in a small fraction of the total sample volume. This includes the elimination of signals representative of sunlight or offset in the op-amp circuitry, consisting of U155 and R155, to the input of op-amp U160. Resistance R160 is connected between capacitor C10 and the positive input to op-amp U160 and to the electrical ground.
