Application Note : 003
Title of application :
Determination of Boron
Area of application :
Water Analysis
Conditions :
| Buffer | CE-Boric acid kit |
| Sample | 1. Cl-; 2. Br-/NO2-; 3. NO3-; 4. SO42-; 5. F-; 6. PO43-; 7.CO32-; 8.Boron (5ppm) |
| Capillary | 50mm ID, 35 cm Length |
| Injection mode | Hydrodynamic injection for 30 seconds at height of 10 cm |
| Separation setting | -7kV |
| Instrument used | CE-P1 |
Description :
CE-P1 provides a rapid and sensitive method for determination of Boron in natural
water. No sample pre-treatment is required. No interference from other common
anions, such as chloride, nitrate, sulphate and carbonate are observed.
As high level of boron is toxic, it is a required testing item for natural water
analysis. The traditional methods, such as colorimetric determination by carminic
acid and potentiometric determination are labour intensive and quite tedious.
